The ElleVet Project, a national nonprofit arm of the science-focused pet CBD+CBDA company ElleVet Sciences, will provide free veterinary care, food and supplies to the pets of the homeless and street pets.

The mobile relief effort will offer the program at the West Orange Christian Service Center, 300 W. Franklin St., Ocoee, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Friday, Jan. 13. For information, call (844) 947-4871.

As The ElleVet Project travels throughout the United States in its 32-foot RV dubbed the “ElleVan,” the organization collaborates with city officials and municipalities to host a rotating team of professional veterinarians to provide free veterinary care to the most vulnerable animals. Services include vaccines, flea and tick preventatives, deworming, general checkups, emergency surgeries and other services as needed.
