Community Engagement Coordinator, with Morris Animal Refuge, Grace Erickson, explained, "All the money that we raise today will go to our TNR program, where we spay and neuter stray cats, try and clean them up, get them vaccinated, so they’re safe out there on the streets."
In addition, staff at the Brewery collected donations of pet food for cats in need across the city. It is estimated there are 400,000 stray cats in Philadelphia.
