Dog with empty food bowl  

Chuckwaggin' Pet Food Assistance Program

In November of 2006, YCHS began a partnership with several local grocery stores.  Whenever a bag of cat food, dog food, or cat litter is broken or cut while stocking shelves, they donate the contents to us via containers we provide. 

The food is packaged and delivered to Meals on Wheels nutritional sites throughout the county, and delivered to senior citizens who request the food with their weekly meals.  In addition, we provide food to low-income residents who qualify for our Virginia Daniels Spay/Neuter Assistance Program and request our help.

We have been fortunate to have recently found a source for dog food that we hope will provide us with an ongoing supply; however, we continue to need cat food donations at this time.

We try to cultivate partnerships with local businesses that sell pet food to allow us to assist more families in Yadkin County.  At this time, we partner with the following businesses:

Food Lion - Elkin and Jonesville

D&J Galaxy - Boonville

If you are a business owner and would be interested in joining us in this program, or an individual who would like to donate pet food, please email us and provide our volunteers with a contact number to reach you.

If you would like to donate funds to help us purchase food for the Chuckwaggin' Pet Food Assistance Program, you may do so online by selecting this link.  If you prefer to make a donation via check, please put "Pet Food Program" in the memo on your check and mail it to:
