Significantly, 100% of the donations collected in our stores remain within the local communities where they were made. These contributions directly assist local pet charities, shelters, and rescue groups, providing vital resources for animals in need. This includes funding for medical care, food supplies, operational support, and adoption initiatives, creating a tangible and positive impact on the lives of countless local animals.

A Legacy of Giving: Over $3.1 Million Raised Since 2008

The “Show Us Your Heart” campaign has become a cornerstone event for Global Pet Foods. Since its inception in 2008, this important initiative has channeled the collective generosity of Canadians to raise a truly impressive over $3.1 million for animal welfare organizations across the country.

Each February, our Global Pet Foods stores become focal points for this important initiative. Many customers demonstrated their support by purchasing paper paws which adorned our stores as a powerful visual testament to community engagement. Individual stores partner with nearby shelters and local pet charities, ensuring donors are aware of the direct local benefit their contributions provide. This emphasis on local impact remains a key factor in the fundraiser’s continued effectiveness.

Global Pet Foods extends its sincere gratitude to everyone who contributed to the 2025 “Show Us Your Heart” fundraiser. Whether through donations, helping to raise awareness, or supporting your local store, your participation was integral to this remarkable achievement.

Thank you for showing your heart.
