Pet stores near our shelter, asked for donations
Pet stores near the shelter, asked for donations with an approved message.
What it does
Every quarter: pet stores and supply shops within 10 km of your animal shelter, with a donation request by xMap AI (food, blankets, a collection box), approved by you, sent from Gmail.
In one sentence: Monthly on the 1st at 08:00, in Johannesburg, find pet stores and pet supply stores in the area, write a summary of each with xMap AI, wait for approval, then send email in Gmail and email the list to you.
