Since 2017, RMT in partnership with other Tucson non-profit and private donors has helped deliver over 43,000 pounds of dog and cat food to needy areas in Southern Arizona. The following is a synopsis of our biggest single day transport of food.
In November 2018, in partnership with Cody’s Friends and GreaterGood, we arranged (rented) two 26ft Trucks to carry just over 10 tons of dog and cat food from Tucson, Arizona to High Desert Humane Society(HDHS) in Globe, Arizona to help animals in the remote area of Gila County Arizona and the San Carlos Apache Reservation get thru the winter.
