Our objectives
Who are we?
A group of animal lovers dedication to promote retention, help, and education.
Our goal is to keep pets in homes with people who love them. In order to do this, we established a pet food bank and we take donations for an emergency vet fund for those who need it. We expect to distribute around 30,000 pounds of dog and cat food in 2020! Our emergency vet fund is intended to help people who can pay for their pet's routine wellness visits, but may need financial help with emergencies occur for their animals.
We provide "Kindness to Animals" curriculum and "Kind News" publication, which is used in after school programs at the local middle school and elementary schools, as well as the home school network (which is coordinated by our board member Shana Speck).
Students in the special education class at White County High School - as well as local Boy Scouts - play a vital role in our pet food bank. These students repackage pet food for distribution to the community, which is a great way to connect education and animal welfare.
Friends of White County Animals (FWCA) was formed as a 501 c 3 non-profit organization in June of 2012 to promote the well-being of all animals, in particular in White County, Tennessee.
FWCA's objectives include but are not limited to:
