The Ripon Tractor Supply store has provided Manteca Animal services with a $200 adoption grant to support the rescue's animal adoption program.

With these funds, the organization will be better able to purchase needed supplies and support program initiatives.

"Through this Adoption Grant, we will provide Manteca Animal services with resources to help maintain and grow their programs," said Brandi Parks, manager of the Ripon Tractor Supply store.

"We're passionate about animals at Tractor Supply, and we're hopeful this partnership will encourage more local adoptions from Manteca Animal services and put deserving pets in loving homes."

Tractor Supply is expected to break ground on a Manteca store on Union Road north of Lathrop Road in the coming months.

Tractor Supply serves as a destination for pet owners, providing food, treats, toys, crates, carriers and supplements, as well as expert advice on all things pet.

With its focus on animals, the rural lifestyle retailer makes it a priority to support local animal organizations like Manteca Animal services whenever possible.

Other community rescue groups interested in hosting in-store adoption events at the Ripon Tractor Supply should contact the store by calling 209-599-1150 for more information. Ripon Tractor Supply is located at 860 N. Jack Tone Road.
