Halo, Purely for Pets Offers the Best-Loved Item in the (Unofficial) Oscars Gift Bags

/EINPresswire.com/ -- TAMPA, FL--(Marketwired - February 26, 2016) - Stars who are nominated but don't win the Oscar Gold at the February 28 Academy Awards will still be winners in the eyes of homeless pets.

The non-winning Oscar nominees in the top five categories will receive a special $230,000 "Everyone Wins" nominee gift bag, independently produced by the founders of swag at marketing firm Distinctive Assets.

Among the extravagant trips, luxury car rentals and other high-end gifts, stars will find a certificate from Halo, Purely for Pets, America's best-loved holistic brand of pet food, and Freekibble.com for 10,000 bowls of Halo natural pet food, to donate to the animal shelter or rescue of the celebrity's choice.

Halo natural pet food is not only the best-loved gift bag item among Oscar nominees, it's also the best-loved food for shelter pets.

Past nominees including Julianne Moore, Julia Roberts, Meryl Streep, Robert Duvall, Barkhad Abdi, Ethan Hawke and more have loved donating Halo to their favorite shelters.

Stars will be especially excited to donate Halo food and Freeze-Dried kiblets to the shelter they choose because Halo helps shelter pets look and feel their best, increasing their chances of finding a forever home.

In fact, in a survey of 85 shelter workers, 77% said they would choose Halo over any other brand, and 75% said the quality of Halo pet food "definitely helps" dogs and cats to get adopted.

Well known for its year-round philanthropic efforts, Halo, Purely for Pets partners with Freekibble.com and GreaterGood.org to donate more than 1.5 million meals to shelter pets each year through their #HaloFeeditForward campaign.

The company also donated 1 million meals to shelter pets for the U.S. Postal Service Adopt a Shelter Pet Stamp Program, sponsors the acclaimed PBS series "Shelter Me," and supports the Humane Society of the United States' Pets for Life program.

Nominees will also receive Freeze-Dried kiblets for their own pets to enjoy.
