Yale assists pet charity
Greenville, NC, United States

Yale Materials Handling Corporation has donated a Yale YA55-PT manual hand pallet truck to the Pet Food Pantry of Eastern North Carolina. Prior to the donation, Pet Food Pantry had to rent pallet trucks to process deliveries.
Pet Food Pantry is eastern North Carolina's only dedicated, charitable pet food resource. The organisation's goal is to prevent the abandonment or surrender of cats and dogs when owners can no longer afford to feed them.
"For an organisation like ours with limited resources to serve a large need, anything we can do to reduce operating expenses goes a long way," says Kristen Below, founder, Pet Food Pantry of Eastern NC. "As we celebrate national pet month, the donation from Yale helps us make an even bigger impact as the food bank for pets."
"It's an honour to help Pet Food Pantry in their mission. They have a variety of smart, effective programs that make a tremendous impact on pet retention and quality of life in Greenville and the surrounding area," says Chris Murtha, brand manager, Yale Materials Handling Corporation. "Supporting them is a reflection of Yale's commitment to being a responsible corporate citizen in the area we call home."
