Greater Good Charities’ GOODS Program

GOODS Program Partnership

Protective Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) has teamed with Greater Good Charities’ to become the Kansas City area ambassador for their GOODS Program. This program shares resources with animal welfare agencies and human services nationwide . Thanks to this partnership, PAWS is able to bring low-cost pet food, litter and other supplies to animal welfare agencies and human services organizations locally and in a multi-State region.
