December 2024 Impact Report

At Colorado Pet Pantry, each year is an opportunity to strengthen our mission and reach more pets and families across Colorado. In 2024, we expanded our services, deepened partnerships, and continued the focus on ensuring pets remain with the people who love them.



Our numbers tell a story of resilience and growth as we expand our reach and respond to the evolving needs of Colorado’s communities.

This year, we’ve seen increasing need across the state as more families face economic uncertainty. Thanks to your support, we’ve been able to keep pace with demand, preventing the heartbreak of pet surrender for thousands of Colorado households.

We’ve made a significant impact on the animal welfare community by helping fellow nonprofits stretch their budgets, directing more resources toward medical care and re-homing efforts.

100% of the pet food we distribute is generously donated by individuals, businesses, and pet food brands. In 2024, we redirected one million pounds of quality pet food, often near best by dates or with blemished packaging, preventing waste, and helping feed pets in need.
