GG's Journey: From Lost to Loved Author Cheryl Lyn Phillips Donates to Benny's Kitchen

In honor of Good Deeds Day, which takes place this year on April 10, author, animal activist and corporate executive Cheryl Lyn Phillips is urging pet lovers in the Rochester area to donate in support of Benny’s Kitchen, a pet care pantry. Through the Rochester Community House, the pantry is available to low-income Rochester area residents. Good Deeds Day is an international event with millions of participants in 70+ countries paying it forward through good deeds on this day.

To support Benny’s Kitchen on Good Deeds Day, bring donations to the Rochester Fire Department on Sunday, April 10th, 2016 from 10 am to 2 pm. In addition to cash donations, Benny’s Kitchen is seeking the following items:

- Dry Dog Food - Chicken, Lamb & Beef
- Canned Dog Food (small breed & senior dogs)
- Dog Cookies
- Rawhide Bones & Toys
- Dry Cat Food
- Friskies Canned Cat Food
- Cat Treats
- Cat Toys

“Benny’s Kitchen supplies the necessary and emergency pet food to low-income Rochester area residents so their furry family members can stay at home, rather than being surrendered to a shelter due to lack of funds to feed their pets” stated Phillips.

Phillips has set up GG’s Foundation which raises money through the sale of her book, GG’s Journey: From Lost to Loved, an inspiring story told through an abandoned pit bull’s eyes and chronicling GG’s journey from abuse to abandonment to salvation. The mission of GG’s Foundation is to end animal homelessness, euthanasia of healthy and treatable pets, exploitation, inhumane treatment and animal cruelty. Funding focuses on animal rescue, humane education programs for adults and youth, and, spay and neuter to prevent overpopulation. To learn more visit www.ggsjourney.com.
