Promoting “Feeding Pets of the Homeless”
Posted By Nancy Houser on September 12, 2009
We at Way Cool Dogs are promoting the website “Feeding Pets of the Homeless“, a nonprofit volunteer organization that provides pet food and veterinarian care to the homeless and less fortunate in local communities across the United States and Canada. How? Their volunteers collection sites receive donated pet food and deliver it to food banks and/or soups kitchens which have agreed to distribute the food to the homeless and impoverished.
Their headquarters are in Carson City, Nevada and it is from here that they coordinate and support their volunteer collection sites.
They collect cash donations, purchase pet food, distribute grant applications to veterinarians, and other nonprofit organizations that meet their objectives, they review and award grants, and they provide marketing materials and promote the organization on behalf of their collection sites to the national media.
Their Mission Statement:
Through Feeding Pets of the Homeless, we will do our part to help reduce hunger in pets that belong to the homeless and the less fortunate and provide medical care for those pets in communities across the country.
We believe in the healing power of companion pets and of the human/animal bond which is very important to life.
Our actions include the following:
- Promote to veterinarians and pet related businesses the importance of joining the program
- Speak out on the issue of pets of homeless and the disadvantaged
- Campaign to food distributing organizations the importance of distributing pet food to the less fortunate
- Provide grants to licensed veterinarians and other nonprofit organizations that meet our objectives to administer medical care to pets of the homeless.
