The Mathews Community Foundation awards a #3,500 grant to the Gloucester-Mathews Humane Society to support the Pet Pantry, a service that provides pet food to those experiencing financial difficulties and keeps pets in their loving homes and out of shelters. Last year the society distributed more than 33,000 pounds of pet food to Pet Pantry clients and demand for the service remains high. Get more information on the pantry at gmhumanesociety.org.
