stbusters Donate Pet Food
Contribute unopened, unexpired dog and cat food. Dry food, canned food, and specialty items can all make a real difference.
Proton Pets
A Ghostbusters Virginia initiative focused on helping local pet pantries and shelters keep families and their animals together.
What is Proton Pets?
Proton Pets, spearheaded by Ghostbusters Virginia, is a worldwide initiative dedicated to supporting pets and animal welfare in our communities. Through pet food drives and outreach, the program works to make a real difference for pets and the people who care for them.
Pet pantries play a vital role in keeping pets healthy and in loving homes. When the cost of pet food becomes overwhelming, pantries help relieve that burden, keeping animals well cared for and preventing them from being surrendered to shelters.
Join the Proton Pets Initiative
By supporting Proton Pets, you can make a meaningful contribution to animal welfare in your community. Together, we can help ensure that pets have access to the food they need to thrive.
Registration is open now through the end of April. Whether you're a Ghostbusters franchise, a fan group, or just someone who wants to help, everyone is welcome to sign up and participate.
Let's show the world that bustin' makes a difference.
