Decatur really is where it’s greater! Inside the Atlanta perimeter is full of color, life and an awesome mix of neighbors, non-profits and soon to be friends. TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Decatur was inspired by the giving character of Decatur, Brookhaven and the surrounding areas. This fall we’re partnering with Taj Ma-hound, Park Pet Supply and VCA’s Peachtree Animal Hospital to help domestic violence pets and their families relocate safely.
If you’re in the Oakhurst neighborhood of Decatur, stop by Taj Ma-hound for sweet treats, dogie presents and even a few surprise neighborhood recommendations for coffee. Pet Park Supply is in the downtown East Atlanta area. Surrounded by local street art, Pet Park Supply has holistic, healthy alternatives to pet nutrition. VCA’s Peachtree Animal Hospital location serves the greater Chamblee area with multiple locations.
Our beneficiary, Ahimsa House, is all about helping families break free from domestic violence situations. We understand the need to help out family pets too! Oftentimes, pets involved in violent homes try to protect their owners from harm by laying over the children or mother during violent episodes. Upon hearing this, our Decatur staff’s hearts broke for these brave pets. We’re amazed at the reliance of any pet who’d take the heat for their loved ones!
To celebrate Ahimsa House’s efforts, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Decatur is looking for the following items to help these courageous families and their pets:
Folding wire crates (all sizes needed)
Pet food • Allergy-free pet food (wheat free, chicken free)
Break-away collars for cats
Litter • Litter boxes • Non-clumping litter • Litter scoops • New cat scratching posts
Airline approved pet carriers
Pens • Copy Paper • Paper towels • Toilet paper
Gas Cards for pet transportation/outreach
First-Class stamps • “Thank-You” cards
Any sized donation will help! If you’d like to take a more active role in helping with Ahimsa House, please stop by any of our upcoming events or leave us a message in the comments section.
If you’re located closer to our shops and would like to leave donations, please email info0283@twomen.com. TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Decatur & partnering businesses will be collecting donation items through December 12.
We’re excited to help domestic violence families and their pets make a safe transition. No effort or donation goes unnoticed!
