Oakville-based Project Maddie which delivered about 900 pounds of cat and dog food to the Wellesley Community Centre, which had been temporarily set up to help residents who had been forced out of their homes cannot meet its operat- ing funds, says director and founder Kimberley Ford, who lives in Oakville and works as an insurance company underwriter. Supplying food to the pets of the Wellesley apartment residents wiped out the supplies in the food bank, said Ford, who did all the deliveries to Toronto in her 2000 Mazda Prot. Most of the food was donated by a commercial retail- er and consisted of food past its expiry date, which is still safe for consumption but cannot be sold. Ford estimates that Project Maddie helped about 300 pets from the fire and another 200 since she started the organization last April. It helped people at risk of losing their pets due to short-term financial instability, as well as seniors and peo- ple living with disabilities on fixed incomes. People would contact her through the website by sending emails or leaving phone messages asking for help. Ford was able to replenish through more commercial dona- tions of pet food and now has 300 pounds, but there is no money to pay operating costs to cover the cost of a postal box, run the web- site, www.projectmaddie.com or pay for gas to deliver food. A volunteer at the Oakville and Milton Humane Society, Ford started the organization because she saw a need to help people who were having trouble finding money to feed their animals. She esti- mates she has spent about $2,000 of her own money on the project. Its all about keeping a pet in a home where its loved and wanted and secure, she said. Since its inception, Ford says she has raised about $800 in dona- tions, which has all been spent on running Project Maddie. She says she needs about $200 a month. Ford says its possible the pet food bank could be revived if there was an outpouring of interest and donations to make it possible. Toronto apartment fire closes Oakville pet food bank Kimberly Ford
