It’s the season for giving and this week Ellen DeGeneres’ pet food company, Halo, Purely for Pets, is joining Freekibble.com and GreaterGood.org are joining together to give 565,000 meals to needy pets.

For the fourth year in a row, the Holiday Kibble Drop will deliver hundreds of thousands of meals to pets in need at more than 30 shelters and rescues in 15 cities throughout the 2014 holiday season.

At each Kibble Drop location, shelters and rescues will receive a food donation on behalf of Freekibble.com visitors and Halo customers, who make the Kibble Drop possible simply by playing Freekibble.com or by purchasing Halo pet food.

It makes me happy to know they’ll be eating so well. They deserve it!” says Mimi Ausland, Freekibble.com founder. Now 18 years old, Ausland launched Freekibble.com at age 11.
