\nLONG BEACH, CA (April 15, 2021) \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>The Los Angeles County Animal Care Foundation (LACACF) has announced a $75,000 grant investment from the newly named Petco Love organization to support their lifesaving work for animals and pet owners in Los Angeles County.<\/p>\n
Petco Love is a nonprofit leading change for pets nationally by harnessing the power of love to make communities and pet families closer, stronger, and healthier. Since their founding in 1999 as the Petco Foundation, they\u2019ve empowered organizations with nearly $300 million invested to date in adoption and other lifesaving efforts. And, they\u2019ve helped find loving homes for more than 6.5 million pets in partnership with Petco and more than 4,000 organizations, like the LACACF, nationwide.<\/p>\n
\u201cToday Petco Love announces an investment in the Los Angeles County Animal Care Foundation and hundreds of other organizations as part of our commitment to create a future in which no pet is unnecessary euthanized,\u201d said Susanne Kogut, President of Petco Love. \u201cOur local investments are only one component. This month, we will also launch the first of our national tools to empower all animal lovers to drive lifesaving change right alongside us.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Los Angeles County Animal Care Foundation is a nonprofit organization that supports the County of Los Angeles Department of Animal Care and Control through fundraising for animal lifesaving programs, serving the communities of Los Angeles County.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis extraordinary gift from Petco Love will enable the Foundation to support the important services provided by the Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control,\u201d said Marcia Mayeda, Department Director. \u201cIn these unprecedented times, providing more resources to keep pets and their families together is critical.\u201d<\/p>\n
