📦 What MARC Needs Right Now

MARC – Marion Animal Resource Connection is requesting donations of Purina kitten food, wet cat food, and clumping cat litter. The organization has made it easy for supporters to contribute by setting up a Chewy.com wish list that allows donors to order supplies for direct delivery. 🛒

📍 Where to Drop Off Donations

Community members can bring donations to two convenient locations:

• MARC, 225 Sequatchie Lane, Sequatchie, Tennessee

❤️ Foster Homes Needed

Beyond material donations, MARC is actively seeking volunteer foster families.

For those interested in fostering, reaching out to MARC directly is the first step. 🏠

Animal welfare organizations across the valley often see seasonal surges in kitten arrivals during warmer months, making community support critical to their mission. Whether through donations, fostering, or spreading the word, neighbors can make a direct difference in the lives of Marion County’s cats.
