THE GOODS (Rescue Bank) Ambassador Dallas Region

Rescue Bank operates on the national food bank model, accepting food donations from manufacturers, distributors or retailers. Suppliers such as Chewy, Purina, J. M. Smucker, Mars, and PetSmart notify us that product is available.

We then schedule and pay for delivering the donation to an Ambassador responsible for a regional distribution center. The Ambassador notifies pre-qualified non-profit groups, which pay a small, per-pound handling fee and pick up their product. For disaster response or law enforcement actions, no handling fee is required.

Rescue Bank is a valued partner for both suppliers and the animal rescue and foster organizations across America.

With millions of pets in need throughout the country, Rescue Bank helps convert donatable product into goodwill for the donor. We understand what it takes to maintain brand integrity throughout the donation process: properly vetting groups, maintaining equitable distribution, and tracking product from their facilities .
