    Join PAACT – Pet & Animal Advocacy Care Team on Saturday, May 16th, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Henderson Lake Park (main park area) in Lethbridge for a community event focused on celebrating pets while supporting local animals and families in need.

    • A donation to PAACT’s Care Closet program, or

    • A $20 donation to support ongoing community animal support initiatives

    PAACT is a volunteer-run, community-based nonprofit organization serving Southern Alberta. Unlike a traditional shelter, PAACT focuses on early intervention and practical support to help keep pets safely with the families who love them whenever possible.

    Programs and services include:

    • The Care Closet program, which provides free pet food, litter, and essential supplies to individuals and families experiencing hardship

    • Foster Friends for Healing, which offers temporary foster support during times of crisis

    • Tail End Journey, which assists with responsible home-to-home pet rehoming and support services

    PAACT will also have pre-packaged emergency Care Closet kits available on-site during the event for individuals or families currently needing assistance with pet supplies.

    This event aims to strengthen community connections, support animal welfare, and help ensure that financial hardship does not become a reason someone loses a beloved pet.
