Support for Chris Barney, Fenway, Stringer & Yoshi

Hello Friends and Fine Folks with Kindred Souls. I am reaching out to find helping hands that are willing to donate any funds in order to support my good friend Chris Barney, who has fallen into severe hardship and is currently homeless. After enduring a series of events brought on by the pandemic, he and his three dogs, Fenway, Stringer, and Yoshi, have been forced to live on the streets. Chris is an avid lover of animals and has dedicated much of his adult life to caring for, sheltering, and feeding stray dogs and other dogs in need. Before the pandemic, he was starting up a free dog day care service for owners who couldn't afford such luxuries. This service included a dog bath, bedding, play space, and a healthy meal, and many of his clients were people who were unhoused or in a financial pickle. Chris has a history of passion and compassion for animals and human beings as well, working as an E.M.T in San Francisco for 10 years. Following his stint as an emergency worker, he was teaching E.M.T. certification classes. The school went bankrupt and Chris was without a job. Because he was unemployed just before 2020, he was not eligible for any financial compensation during the shutdown. He also suffered massive head injuries when he was a victim of a violent home invasion, during which many of his precious items were stolen and never found. Chris has an endlessly giving and benevolent soul, donating and contributing to causes whenever he can. He is vegan, and is not addicted to drugs or alcohol. He is a jolly good fellow who's had nothing but hard luck, crisis, and misery as of late. It is vital to see that he, Fenway, Stringer and Oshi have a stable, safe, and healthy living space. All of the money we raise will go toward securing housing for Chris and his dogs, as well as getting him back on track with his dog day care business.
