The Ryan Newman Foundation

The Ryan Newman Foundation proudly supports AniMeals

Hospice & Palliative Care of Iredell County (HPCIC), located in North Carolina, cares for patients and their families at a time when care matters most.  With the support of the Ryan Newman Foundation, HPCIC has now extended that care to pets by supplying free delivered pet food to patients who have a financial, emotional or mobility need.

It is no secret the healing powers our pets hold.  When faced with an end-of-life situation no patient should have to worry about the well-being of their pet.  Through the AniMeals program, we are now able to relieve the burden of feeding the pets of those patients in need.

AniMeals donations are currently being collected in specially marked bins at Tractor Supply Company and Southern States, both located in Statesville, North Carolina, and Petco in Mooresville, North Carolina.

With the support from donors and a generous donation from Iams, no patients pet will ever go hungry.  Donations of all kinds of pet food, wet or dry, pet supplies or treats are welcome.

Whether a patient is unable to leave their home or has financial burdens, AniMeals is now here to help.  It is our hope that by assisting Hospice families with AniMeals, we will not only help feed the pets of our families in need, but also as part of the mission of the Ryan Newman Foundation we will help keep pets in their homes and out of shelters.
