LONG ISLAND CARES 8TH ANNUAL LEGISLATIVE PET FOOD DRIVE
Nassau County Legislator Denise Ford is pleased to participate in the 8th Annual Legislative Pet Food Drive. The Legislative Pet Food Drive brings together all levels of state and local elected officials in an attempt to gather much needed pet food donations for struggling Nassau and Suffolk County families. (The drive runs March 1st through April 30th. But, you can continue to donate all year!)
Every donation, big and small, goes to help treasured pets.
