Festival Foods' Paw Away Hunger drive will get a boost in donations in September thanks to Purina, but they still need your help!

NBC26 has partnered with Festival to feed pets in Northeast Wisconsin through the Paw Away Hunger drive. This month, Purina will match donations made to the drive up to $10,000.

It's a way they'll be able to help even more pets in our area.

"We have some people who come in and give ten dollars every time they come shop," said Paul Klinkhammer, Asst. Store Director for Festival Foods in De Pere. "I think that's really cool to see, especially when you're cashiering and you get those cards for a way to donate and people are really on top of it."

To donate, you just have to pick up a donation card when shopping at Festival Foods and give it to your cashier when you check out. 

The cards start at a $5 donation.
