Impact Stories
Our work is transforming lives worldwide.
250,000 Meals and Candy Delivered to Earthquake Survivors
Greater Good Charities' disaster response team, supported by 70 volunteers, provided over 250,000 hot meals and candy to earthquake victims, refugees, and rescue workers in Hatay, Turkey. For 60 days, the team distributed meals, pet food for families, and food for stray animals. We continue to provide humanitarian and pet aid through local partners.
2.5M Pet Meals Donated Through Mars and Walmart Partnership
Walmart partnered with Mars Petcare and Greater Good Charities to launch the "Extend A Paw" program. For every qualifying purchase of Pedigree, IAMS, Nutro, or Temptations, Mars Petcare donated one meal to a pet in need. The campaign drove 51.2 million digital impressions, exceeded the donation goal with 2.5 million meals, and solidified Walmart and Mars Petcare as trusted, pet-loving brands.
Emergency Food for Millions of Bees After Hurricanes
In partnership with Mann Lake, the Florida State Beekeepers Association, and Cargill, responded to Hurricane Helene’s devastation by providing emergency food supplies to beekeepers in Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina. We delivered 41,000 gallons of syrup and 40,000 pounds of bee pollen substitute to sustain millions of at-risk bees. This effort is part of an ongoing mission to support beekeepers and protect vital pollinators as they recover.
Chris Pratt and GGC Raise $650K to Fight Food Insecurity
Chris Pratt and Greater Good Charities, along with partners, raised nearly $650,000 through the Feed Thy Neighbor initiative to fight COVID-19-related food insecurity. Supported by The Hunger Site and 12 Tomatoes, 100% of donations went to relief efforts. Pratt contributed $100,000 in matching funds and hosted a star-studded New Year’s Eve Instagram Live. Funds were split between Feeding America® and frontline hunger relief grants.
GGC Builds Pet Shelter for Domestic Violence Survivors
Liberty House in Albany, Georgia, was transformed to welcome residents’ pets, removing a major barrier for domestic violence victims. A new 12'x24' pet shelter with three suites, outdoor access, and amenities was built, alongside a fenced play area, storage shelving, a ramp, and sidewalk. Over 13 days, 26 volunteers contributed 1,524 hours. The facility now provides 1,095 safe pet housing nights annually.
Disaster Response
Meet disaster head-on with pre-staged supplies.
Hurricanes Helene and Milton unleashed unprecedented devastation across the Southeastern U.S. We deployed 140+ trucks and 5 planes across five states, delivering 2,800 tons of emergency supplies, evacuating shelter animals, saving billions of bees, and providing nearly $10M in aid – transforming every $1 donated into $27 of relief.
1. Preparedness
Set the Stage for Relief
Supplies were delivered ahead of Hurricane Helene, and 100+ shelter pets relocated to safety. Additional supplies were pre-positioned for Hurricane Milton, with partners engaged to support communities and safeguard bees through emergency feeding.
2. Response
Aid is Delivered Immediately
Close to $10M in aid, including food, water, hygiene products, pet supplies, and beekeeper support, was delivered via 130 trucks to 50 communities, including remote areas, in collaboration with local, state, and national partners.
3. Recovery
Sustained Efforts for Long-Term Impact
Recovery efforts focus on delivering supplies, supporting affected communities, and providing ongoing aid to the most vulnerable in high-need areas.
