 Thanks to Banfield  
 Charitable Trust, the
 Albemarle Commission
 Senior Nutrition Program will 
 no longer have to worry about 
 our homebound seniors 
 sharing their home
 delivered meal with their
 pet. We recently received a
 check for $1,000.00 to 
 purchase dog/cat food for our 
 seniors who have pets. We
 appreciate Banfield’s
 dedication to eliminating
 senior hunger, not just among
 our elderly, but for their pets
 too!
