UPCOMING EVENTS
Save the Date: Meals for Mutts!
Your meal can feed a rescue animal. Here's how.
On July 22nd, participating restaurants across Union County will donate a portion of their proceeds to Safe Pet Project — supporting the animals in our community who need it most. No voucher. No extra cost. Just show up, eat well, and do good for animals in need.
Every dollar raised through Meals for Mutts supports Safe Pet Project's work: caring for foster animals, providing veterinary treatment for pets in need, and running our TNR program to humanely reduce community cat populations right here in Union County.
How It Works
Choose any participating restaurant on July 22nd: dine in, take out, or order for your office
Eat and enjoy
A portion of your bill goes directly to Safe Pet Project automatically
