Collecting 30,000 Pounds Of Pet Food In just 30 Days
Fort Wayne local, Rachelle Reinking, requests the community’s support to reach the goal of collecting 30,000 pounds of pet food in 30 days for Humane Fort Wayne’s Pet Food Pantry. The 30K in 30 Days Pet Food Drive began collection on November 26, 2022 and will end on December 26, 2022 – Reinking’s 30th birthday.
“For this milestone birthday, I wanted to contribute something more than a Facebook fundraiser,” said Reinking, who volunteers for Humane Fort Wayne. “I set what some might consider a lofty goal, but I have seen the generosity of our community time and again. I believe we can make this happen together.”

Since its inception in 2010, the Fort Wayne Pet Food Pantry has been providing no-cost pet food to neighbors in need in our community. In doing so, the organization has helped keep pets in loving homes while reducing shelter intakes and euthanasia. In February 2022, the Pet Food Pantry joined Humane Fort Wayne as a joint initiative to serve pets and people in Fort Wayne.
