The lines are often long, but for people who are struggling to feed themselves and their pets, St. Mary's Food Bank is a vital resource.
During the last week of the month, St. Mary's typically includes large bags of pet food along with the food boxes they distribute at their 31st Avenue and Thomas Road location.
"We do a thousand plus cars a day here at St. Mary's, Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.," said the food bank's client center manager Scott Gray. "83% of people will give their food to their pet in lieu of letting their pet go hungry," said PetSmart Charities veterinarian Dr. Robyn Jaynes,"So, if we can deliver pet food alongside the people food, it's a win-win."
