Pet food Sunday donations – 2021
This year, we will celebrate Pet Food Sunday throughout the month of February, ending on Feb. 21. Please remember to support Pet Partner Connections through your church in these difficult times. Food can be donated at your participating church. Keep an eye on your church bulletin for more church specific information. You may also donate any time at our regular donation sites: Black Cat Bistro, Knapp & Schlappi Hardware, or Lyons Bank. Your donations will provide Yates County family pets with food and basic care. We need you more than ever!! Help us keep pets with their family this year. Thank you so much for your continued support.
Chris was born in Webster City and raised in Charles City. As a young kid, he would always be caught singing along to songs on the radio. He says he s good at karaoke but we think otherwise. ;) In his free time, he enjoys beginning new projects at home and hardly ever finishing them. Chris lives in Charles City with his wife Vicki, daughter Brynlee and son Jaxon.

When Jeanine Nemitz, of Fort Dodge, was a child one of her chores was to clean the church her family attended.
“I was trained as a volunteer from a very early age,” said Nemitz, a 1974 Fort Dodge Senior High graduate. “My family went to a small church (Assumption Parish in Coalville) and we would all take turns cleaning the church. That was my first exposure to how volunteers can make a difference. The little kids dusted the pews and as you grew older your jobs got bigger.”
That volunteer spirit followed Nemitz into adulthood.
As she grew older, she spent time volunteering in schools and eventually coordinated religious education programs at Corpus Christi Catholic Church in Fort Dodge.
