Rocky’s Ace Hardware Invites Store Customers To ‘Round Up For Pets’

Rocky’s Ace Hardware, one of the country’s largest family-owned Ace Hardware dealers with 48 locations in nine states, is making sure furry friends are not forgotten this holiday season with its 13th annual campaign supporting animal shelters.

Throughout the “Round Up for Pets” fundraiser, which continues through Sunday, Dec. 31, customers are asked to round up their purchase total to the next dollar. The difference is donated to local animal shelters.

“Our pets bring so much joy to our lives, and many of the people on our team have adopted from local shelters over the years,” Rocky’s Ace Hardware President & CEO Rocco J. Falcone II said. “We’re honored to support the work being done to provide these animals with love and care while they wait to find their forever homes.”

Participating Rocky’s locations include the stores in Stuart, Port St. Lucie, Wellington and Tequesta. Local shelters that will benefit from the year’s round up include the Kane Center in Stuart, Dogs and Cats Forever in Fort Pierce, Big Dog Ranch Rescue in Loxahatchee Groves and Furry Friends Adoption, Clinic & Ranch in Jupiter.

“It warms our hearts to be able to make a difference for these animals, especially at a time when they are more likely to be forgotten,” Falcone said. “We are lucky to have such generous customers who allow us to make this happen, and we are grateful for their support.”
