Pet Food for the Homeless -1 yr

PROJECT UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
My name is Avery and I am a 7th grader at Mountain Middle School. In May 2015 I decided I wanted to help the homeless by giving them food for their pet. I know that for many of the homeless, their pet is the best friend, companion, and their sole source of unconditional love. So I created Project Unconditional Love (PUL).
So I started calling businesses such as Country Store, Natural Grocers, North 40, Costco, URM, etc. and asking them for broken or expired bags of cat and dog food. Then I bought gallon and quart Ziploc bags. Direct Storage donated a 10x10 ft. storage unit for PUL to use.I filled the gallon bags with dog food and the quart bags with cat food. I put them in storage tubs and take them down every Wednesday night to 4th and McClennan and pass them out with Blessing Under The Bridge. I started this May 27, 2015 and have not missed a week.
Typically I take down 8-12 40 gallon tubs of pet food a week. The most I ever did was on Dec. 18, 2015 when we had 1,100 people there. I have a bank account with Chase Bank and have a donation barrel at the North Country Store on Newport Highway. For more information, please visit our Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/groups/893933834007786/ or go to http://.pulspokane.wix.com/homeless. We appreciate your support.
Thank You!
