Have you ever heard of Freekibble.com? It’s primary mission is to provide healthy, nutritious food to the dogs and cats at shelters where staff and volunteers work hard to see that none of their animals go hungry.

Freekibble is based in the Northwest – in Bend, OR – and was started by Mimi Ausland, an 11 year old girl who wanted to help feed the hungry dogs and cats at her local animal shelter.

Here’s how it works:

Each day the website features a question with multiple choice answers about dogs or cats. When anyone takes the quiz, regardless of whether or not they get the right answer, Freekibble donates 10 pieces of kibble to animal shelters.

Since it was started in 2008 Freekibble has donated over six million meals for dogs and cats in shelters around the country.

Today, Freekibble.com is designating ALL kibble raised to help animal relief efforts in two areas of the county hit hard by Hurricane Irene last week – North Carolina and Vermont.

Shelters in these two states are overwhelmed with taking care of hundreds of animals displaced by the Hurricane Irene in addition to the ones they already had before the hurricane hit.

In order to provide some relief to these overburdened shelters, Freekibble.com will donate ALL kibble raised from today’s quiz to the Central Vermont Humane Society and the Fayetteville, NC Animal Protection Society to support their efforts in caring for the hundreds of pets impacted by the storm.

These organizations will also distribute the food to additional welfare groups who are struggling.

In addition, Halo, Purely for Pets, the company that donates the kibble to Freekibble.com will double the donation to these shelters if Freekibble.com hits one million pieces of free kibble today.

So with your help TODAY, Freekibble.com will send TWO MILLION pieces of kibble directly to the Vermont and North Carlina animal relief efforts.

So go to Freekibble.com now and take the quiz.

It’s fast.

It’s easy.

And it will help hundreds of animals in need!
