By giving out dog and cat food, we can save lives and keep animals in their own homes. GHHS also donates food to Helping Animals Without Shelter (HAWS), Spay/Neuter Action Project (SNAP) and many other local organizations and community partners, to reach as many pet owners as possible.
the 2nd Wednesday from 2:00pm-4:00pm
the last Saturday of each month from 9:00am-11:00am
King’s Kitchen is the largest pet food bank in Alabama and we need your help to save the animals. We accept all brands, and even open bags. Please consider donating food to help those animals in need. You can drop off donations at our shelter (Monday-Saturday, 10am-4:00pm), or call us for large pick-ups. Thank you for helping the animals!
King’s Kitchen rapidly expanded in 2021 from 200 clients to 302 clients and, with your support, provided 33,928 pounds of pet food to homes in need. (We distributed 4,495 pounds of food in January 2022 alone!) King’s Kitchen also supports GHHS’ state-wide initiative “Road to Rescue” and permits GHHS volunteers to distribute pet food to shelters in need across Alabama once a year. Currently we are operating King’s Kitchen out of our multi-use Annex but have outgrown the space. We are seeking community partnerships and sponsorships that will allow us to build a dedicated King’s Kitchen building and provide many more opportunities to help the Greater Huntsville region.
King’s Community Kitchen offers participants 9 distributions in a 24 month period of time. To qualify for this program, you must provide photo ID, proof of need (a letter from Medicare, Food Stamps, WIC, etc.) and household income of below $35,000, and WRITTEN proof of spay/neuter.
King’s Kitchen is open twice a month: the 2nd Wednesday from 2:00pm- 4:00pm and last Saturday of each month from 9:00am- 11:00am. Food pick-up (up to 30lbs) is allowed once a month. You can apply for the program on one of those open days. Please call 256-881-8081 ext 217 if you have any further questions.
The fund is named after King (pictured), who was surrendered to GHHS extremely emaciated. His owners could not afford to feed him. They didn’t want to give him up. King was surrendered, returned to normal weight and now lives in his forever home. We never want to see another animal go hungry.
