From Greater Good:
“Send Backpacks with Essentials this Veterans Day”
This Veterans Day, nearly 40,000 veterans experiencing
homelessness and their beloved pets will lack essential supplies for warmth and
comfort. Most homeless shelters do not allow pets. On any given night, veterans
without homes are forced to choose between staying with their pets and facing
the dangers of existing outside, or checking into a shelter and abandoning the
only family they know. The security of basic comfort items and nutritious meals
can help bridge the gap for our veterans and their pets as they seek to secure
permanent housing.
Plus, from November 1st through November 11th, Dutch Harbor
Brands is generously matching donations until we reach $25k! Donate NOW to
double your impact.
Greater Good Charities works to provide food and comfort
items to veterans experiencing homelessness in areas with high veteran poverty
populations. Through our relationship with the VA, these essential items will
ensure local veterans have access to basic supplies and nutritious meals.
Along with food, our Good Packs include basic survival
supplies in functional backpacks to veterans in crisis. These supplies for
people and pets include blankets, clothing, reusable water bottles, basic
hygiene products, pet food and treats, toys, slip leads and collapsible
food/water dishes.
They fought for us—let’s fight for them this Veterans Day.
Your gift today will help our Good Packs program, and support Greater Good
Charities' other lifesaving programs to help those in need. Just $25 can send a
Good Pack to a veteran and their pet! Donate NOW and your gift will be matched,
dollar for dollar, until we reach $25k.
