Resources for Pet Owners
Pet Pantries
The El Paso Community Foundation has provided Public Pet Pantries at all 14 El Paso Public Library branches in partnership with the City of El Paso. These pantries will provide free pet food and supplies to families in need—no questions asked. Each pantry will operate during regular library hours and is stocked by community donations.
