Specialty Plate Funds Beneficiary:

The Nashville Humane Association’s Darcy Lashinsky Community Pet Food Bank program stands as a beacon of support for pet-owning families within Davidson County. This program serves as an integral resource for households in need by distributing supplemental pet food support.

Named in remembrance of our cherished friend and generous, fierce supporter, Darcy Miller Lashinsky, this program
relies on the generosity of donors that share our dedication to aiding pets and their families. Our hope is that with this assistance, families will be able to provide for their animals and give them the best, happiest lives possible.

By offering resources to our community that allow them to care for their cherished family pets rather than surrender them to the shelter, we are able to leave the kennels open for animals who truly need them. After all,
the best shelter pet is one that never makes it to the shelter in the first place.

The Nashville Humane Association’s Community Pet Food Bank program has been a
vital support system for our community’s pet owners, ensuring that beloved pets receive the care they deserve, even in times of financial strain. This initiative stands as a testament to our ongoing commitment to the welfare of pets and their devoted families.

Your $35 contribution through this webpage covers the cost of both the license plate and a generous donation to Nashville Humane.
