Pet Food Bank

The Hawaiian Humane Society’s Pet Food Bank program provides temporary assistance to pet owners struggling to feed their animals and runs solely via generous donations from the community, pet stores and the Hawaii Food Bank. Pet food is distributed when donations are available and are not intended to be the sole means of care.

Hawaiian Humane cannot guarantee a 30-day supply and applicants may be limited to pickups 1x per month, dependent on availability. Please bring your own reusable bag to take pet food home to your pets. 

Pet Food Bank is now offered at both of Hawaiian Humane’s Mōʻiliʻili Campus and Kosasa Family Campus at Hoʻopili for your convenience and easy access:
