I recently read an article that talked about a school raising funds for dogs and cats receiving food from Meals on Wheels. I didn't think about that and thought that was a great fund-raising idea.
We realize that people, particularly many elderly and disabled, need assistance with food and so a worthy charity like Meals on Wheels provides for them. But many of these people also have pets, who also need food. If someone is house-bound and cannot get out to buy food for themselves, they are also unable to buy food for their pets.
So, three cheers for the school that thought about helping pets who live with elderly and others who need assistance. And maybe next time you're out at the supermarket, you can purchase a bag of dry cat or dog food to donate to the local food pantry. I know I will now.
