SCHENECTADY, N.Y. — Market 32 and Price Chopper supermarkets are conducting their annual pet food and supply drive from April 1 to April 30 to benefit local animal welfare organizations. 

 

Customers are invited to purchase and donate items by placing them in specially marked shopping carts located at the front of each store.

 

According to Pam Cerrone, director of community relations at Market 32 and Price Chopper, animal shelters offer essential services such as food, medical care, and shelter for animals awaiting adoption. The collection aims to provide these organizations with necessary supplies. Cerrone stated that all donations will remain within the local areas where they are collected.

 

Stores in New York’s Capital Region will collect donations for the Capital District Humane Association. Other Market 32 and Price Chopper locations will support a local animal welfare agency specific to each store’s community, with the beneficiary identified on the designated collection carts.
