Organized by the School of Dentistry, HSC faculty, staff and students recently donated much needed items to Louisville Metro Animal Services to help care for homeless pets.

In collaboration with a similar effort on the Belknap campus, the “Puppy and Kitten Shower” led to donations of dog and cat food/treats, paper towels, sanitizing wipes, dishwashing liquid, bandaging materials, rubbing alcohol and many other items.

A truck load of gifts, along with gift cards and cash were delivered to LMAS this month, and will help save the lives of baby animals.

The School of Dentistry helps coordinate efforts to help animals in need twice a year – the “Angel Tree for Homeless Animals” in November/December, and the “Puppy and Kitten Shower” in March/April/May.
