With the support of many local groups, individuals and organizations last year alone we collected nearly 5000lbs. for BMOW.
November 14th- December 19th, donations of canned and dry food
for cats & dogs will be accepted at our practice and area business. A a portion of the donation will again be matched by the VCAHAH*.
“Even with the growth of out practice our commitment to community has not changed. Our partnership with Broward Meals on Wheels for Pets is a great source of pride for all of us at VCAHAH. We thrive on being a part of such a supportive community. We could not be happier to participate in giving back."-Linda Ream, Communications Coordinator- VCAHAH
BMOW delivers pet food once a month to homebound seniors who need
assistance taking care of their in-home pets.
Pet food is provided through the generosity of community donations. The
need for donations of cat food is in particular demand among BMOW clients.
“The quantity of food used monthly by Broward Meals on Wheels for Pets is around 800 lbs alone for the southern portion of Broward County. These food collections go a long way to help feed the furry family members of the seniors in need here in Broward.”-Bobbi Arnold, Co- Chair of Broward Meals on Wheels for pets.

Broward Meals on
Wheels for Companion Animals started when volunteers began to notice clients sharing their meals
with their pets. Senior on a restricted budget can have a difficult time
meeting their own needs and often the needs of their companion animals can be
neglected. With only the support of volunteers and donation this organization
provides delivery of food for these loyal pets once a month to clients of BMOW.
