UPF Resource Center · 11336 Tamarco Drive, Blue Ash, Ohio 45242
We wish we could help every pet and every family — but our mission is to be a community resource provider to animal rescues, shelters & advocacy groups, not individual pets.
That means we can’t cover personal vet or surgery bills, give food or supplies directly to individuals, or rehome animals. Your local shelter or rescue may be able to help — and many of them get their resources from us.
About
Connecting business generosity with organizations that care for animals in need.
Our primary function is distributing pet food, puppy pads, cat litter and a myriad of essential pet supplies to our shelter and rescue members. We do this through Distribution Days at the UPF Resource Center, where the UPF community comes together to share the resources we have gathered.
By facilitating large donations from corporate and business partners, UPF fills an important and unique role. Many smaller rescues, shelters and advocacy groups don't have the time to develop relationships with local businesses, or the infrastructure to accept truckloads of product.
Through our partnership with RescueBank.org, now part of Greater Good Charities, some of these resources reach animal rescues and shelters across the country — not just in the Ohio Valley region.
Many of our members are running a nonprofit for the first time in their lives. UPF provides them not only with pet food and supplies, but also with essential training, support and community.
