Furrbaby Food Pantry’s Year of Growth and Giving Back
Three years ago, Korri Bindl opened her front yard and driveway to collect pet food and other supplies for pet owners facing financial hardships. Today, her nonprofit, Furrbaby Food Pantry, has its own brick-and-mortar home on Northwest Boulevard in Georgetown where it continues to provide free supplies to pet owners in need. “I can hardly believe that it has already been one year since we established our brick-and-mortar location,” Korri shares. “Reflecting on the early days of managing this operation from my front yard feels almost surreal!”
Since opening its doors in December 2023, Furrbaby Food Pantry has experienced remarkable growth, not only in the amount of donations and assistance provided but also through the addition of its hardworking volunteers. Thanks to their efforts, the organization has been able to support Georgetown and surrounding communities as well as the local homeless population with their pets. The organization recently expanded its operations to occupy the entire back half of John Pack Custom Pools, allowing it to provide even more essential pet supplies to those in need.
Deahni H. is one of the many pet owners whose lives have been touched by Furrbaby Food Pantry. As a single mom battling stage 4 cancer and facing the unexpected loss of her job, Deahni was left to figure out how to care for her children and pets.
“The services from Furrbaby Pantry allowed me to keep our pets,” she says. “They are happy and healthy and fed.
I never imagined I’d be in a situation like this. What an absolute blessing that there are organizations
like Furrbaby Food Pantry to help people in their
time of need. Forever grateful.”
2025 VISION
Looking to 2025, Korri shares that Furrbaby Food Pantry will be focusing on securing grants to alleviate operational costs, as well as acquiring a mobile van to reach communities that are in need of assistance but may have difficulty accessing the pantry. She thanks everyone who helped the organization get off the ground this year.
“I truly mean it when I say that we could not have achieved this without the support of our community. Here’s to a fantastic 2025 ahead!”
