Animal welfare advocates and the wider pet-loving community can now donate food, medical supplies, and other essentials directly to PETA Asia’s Ampon Alaga Program and Biyaya Animal Sanctuary through GrabMart, with zero delivery fees from August 28 to September 3.
From dog and cat food to treats, toys, beds, vitamins and supplements, cat litter, pee pads, cleaning supplies, grooming tools, and other pet-care essentials, donors can choose from items that participating animal welfare organizations have pre-identified as most needed.
To donate, users can select their chosen organization as the GrabMart delivery location, purchase the items they wish to give from participating pet merchants, and complete their order using cashless payment methods. Participating pet merchants include Pet Express, Pet Lovers Centre, and Dogs and the City, with more merchants available within an 8-kilometer radius of each designated drop-off location.
Once the order is placed, the participating merchant will prepare the donation, and a Grab driver-partner will deliver it directly to the chosen organization. There’s no minimum spend, and delivery is free throughout the campaign period.
Ashley Fruno, Director of the Animal Assistance Program at PETA Asia, said donations of everyday essentials can help animal welfare organizations continue caring for rescued animals.
“For animal rescues caring for hundreds of cats and dogs, even a small donation can make a meaningful difference. We’re grateful that Grab is making it easier for people to support rescues wherever they are. Every bag of food, pack of supplies, or other essential item helps us provide rescued animals with the care they need while they wait for loving homes,” said Fruno.
Rina Ortiz, President of Biyaya Animal Care Foundation, Inc., sees that operational need every day. The organization provides rescue, rehabilitation, veterinary care, and other support for animals in need.

“Caring for rescued animals teaches us that compassion is not only found in extraordinary acts. Very often, it is built through ordinary things done consistently—a meal, medicine, a clean place to sleep, a bag of supplies arriving when it is needed. What we love about this initiative with GrabMart is that it gives anyone a simple way to turn compassion into something tangible. When many people each do something small, together it becomes an extraordinary act of care,” said Ortiz.
Grab Philippines also provided GrabGift vouchers to support participating animal welfare organizations and the rescued animals in their care.
For the designated drop-off locations, users can pin “Biyaya Animal Care - Mandala” on the Grab app as the collection point for donations to Biyaya Animal Sanctuary, and “Ampon Alaga” for PETA Asia’s Ampon Alaga Program.
