Join us in helping some animals in need this holiday season.

Every year the Petro Home Services north New Jersey office chooses an organization to donate to during the holiday season. Over the years we've demonstrated just how committed we are to our communities by donating to lots of charities or community organizations that do great work for many different causes. We know that this year will prove no different than in years past.

As we do every year, we have taken recommendations from members of our team as to who we will support. We're delighted to share that this year we're teaming up with three of New Jersey's, 100 % volunteered, 100% non-profit, No Kill Animal Rescues and Shelters!

All of the animals in these shelters are rescued and have been given a second chance at life. Each of them has a long and sad behind them and they, and those who care for them, are looking to us for our help and generosity. Many of the animals come from puppy mills, pharmaceutical research laboratories, animal hoarding situations and neglected homes. However, a large majority of the affected pets are due to Superstorm Sandy and the hard times that have left many families no longer able to afford the care for their pet. So many of us who have had pets of our own, or had them growing up, know how little they ask of us, yet they give of so much in return. Sadly, lots of these dogs, puppies, cats and kittens may never know the joy of being a loved and cherished pet without our help.

How we, and you, can help:
The Rescues/Shelters that we have teamed up with have a very simple "Wish List" of items that will help the animals and their caregivers greatly. You can find this Wish List below along with a list of stores to get some great deals for them. Whatever items, or items, you can donate, we ask that you wrap or put them in plastic or paper bags, bring them to one of these Petro Home Services New Jersey offices and place them inside the Petro dog houses there:

94 Dell Ave - Unit #1
Kenvil, NJ 07847

99 River Avenue
Lakewood, NJ 08701

40 Cragwood Road
South Plainfield, NJ 07080

Donations can be made up until Wednesday, December 18th, 2013.
We will be dropping our donations off on Friday, December 20th, 2013.

Please take a moment to review the donation list below. Together we can make their Wish List a reality and help our animal friends in need.

Below you'll also find the links to each organization should you wish to drop off any Wish List items directly or adopt or foster any of their rescued animals. Please be animal friendly and pledge to adopt your next pet!
