Services for Seniors and Homeless Families at Friendly House

As we start to think about the holidays, our attention is drawn to those families who need help feeding their children, both two and four-legged. We are teaming up again this year with our neighbors at Friendly House's Services for Seniors and Homeless Families to help provide food for both people and pets. Until the end of the year, Northwest Neighborhood Veterinary Hospital will be donating a pound of dog and cat food to Friendly House's Emergency Food Pantry for every pound of food
(both people and pet) or supplies donated at our hospital.

The Friendly House Emergency Food Pantry seeks to provide nutritious, culturally appropriate, and easy to prepare food for low income clients and participants of Friendly House programs. High protein, easy to chew items and nutritional drinks, such as Boost or Ensure are particularly good for seniors. Many of these people also request food for their dogs and cats. If we can provide food for their pets, hopefully they'll be able to keep their pets and maintain the very important human-animal relationship. Please help us by donating non-perishable human food items, including pet toys and treats. We will have a bin set-up in the lobby of our hospital as well as more information on Friendly House's Services for Seniors and Homeless Families.

THANK YOU!
