What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Home Street Home-Dogs and Cats of the homeless
Our nonprofit program is an ongoing, organized effort to provide food, supplies, and veterinarian care for the pets of people experiencing homelessness.
Each November we select several organizations working with the homeless to provide Holiday
“Love Bags”💖 for the dogs and cats of the homeless.💕
Love bags cost $30.00 each and include some of the following; dog and cat food, snacks, pet toys, harnesses for walking, bowls, blankets, socks, hats, raincoats, and leash leads. Additional funds are used for veterinary care and larger items to protect pets, such as tents, tarps, pet strollers, sleeping bags, and camp pillows.
Our program continues throughout the year providing food, supplies, and veterinarian care for the pets of people experiencing homelessness if funds are available.

Animals in crises during disasters
When disaster strikes, we need to be able to respond quickly and effectively, offering meaningful support to organizations making a real difference in the affected areas.
Every 7 seconds a tragedy will strike one of our communities. Tens of thousands of animals suffer and die and thousands go missing because we are not using all of our available resources. Animal shelters, small farms, and hospitals are not equipped with the funds and supplies needed to assist. And while the evacuation process is near impossible at times, the recovery process is more brutal as people prepare to move on sadly knowing they have been forced to leave their pets behind to suffer and die because there was no place to bring them.
We are laser-focused on the needs of small local, carefully vetted, animal welfare organizations working on the front lines during disasters or with animal abuse cases, and who have a history of success and are most likely to sustain.
