Happy New Year wishes for friends of Feeding Pets of the Homeless.

A year in review is always a shock of what my staff has undertaken. They have made or taken over 11,500 calls. Helped over 840 pets that were suffering. Processed over 1,000 invoices from hospitals. Posted every week on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Pinterest and LinkedIn. And created this newsletter each month. I could not be prouder of their accomplishments.

I recently read this study, “The Homeless Experience in America Report” by DuPont Great Stuff, Nov 2021. I think the most shocking item for me was the number of Millennials who are or have experienced homelessness.

Of the 1,000 surveyed, a few samples of the study show:

• 3 in 4 Americans want to help but feel overwhelmed by how big the problem is (73%)

• 1 in 3 Millennials are or have experienced homelessness – more than any generation before them.

• 3 in 10 know someone who is or has experienced homelessness

• 1 in 2 Americans have only enough savings to support them for 2 months or less

• 6 in 10 Americans say they feel guilty for not doing more to help those who are homeless, but are torn between wanting to help and avoiding those experiencing homelessness altogether.

By helping us you do not have to feel torn. We are keeping the animal/human bond of love alive with your support and gifts. Whether that be a gift of funds, pet food and supplies or your time.

You are the heart of Feeding Pets of the Homeless.

May the New Year bless you with love, health, wealth, and happiness.
