For the Love of Cats Receives Donation from Winn Dixie

For the Love of Cats celebrates as a Winn Dixie Community Bag Program Beneficiary announcing that the Winn Dixie store on Marco donated $325 to their cause. The Winn Dixie Community Bag Program, which launched in February 2019, is a reusable bag program that facilitates community support with the goal to make a difference in the communities where shoppers live and work. For the Love of Cats was selected as the February beneficiary of the program by store leadership at the Winn Dixie located at 625 North Collier Boulevard, Marco Island, Florida. Throughout the month of February, purchases of the Reusable Community Bag for $2.99 each generated a $1 donation to For the Love of Cats.

“We can’t thank Steve, the store manager, and his staff enough for selecting us again for this year.” said Jan Rich, Executive Director of For the Love of Cats. “The support of all our friends in the community is amazing. We are so grateful to all the shoppers at Winn Dixie who bought bags to help our cause. These fun events give us the ability to continue helping to save lives of cats and kittens in need and continue to provide dog and cat food to the underserved community in partnership with Our Daily Bread. We are always doing more and our friends in the community make it possible.” 

For the Love of Cats is a 501(c)3 non-profit animal welfare organization dedicated to saving the lives of cats and kittens in need in the community since 2002. 

All donations benefit cats and kittens in need throughout Collier County and help low-income families through their programs that offer low cost spay/neuter, emergency and wellness veterinary care, and TNR (trap, neuter, return) for feral and community cats. Their pet food pantry provides dog and cat food to the underserved families in need and paid adoption fee and gift certificate for senior cats adopted to seniors throughout Collier County.
