01What it does

What Feeding Pets of the Homeless Aka Pets of the Homeless does

Mission

Feeding pets of the homeless believes in the healing power of companion pets and the human/animal bond which is very important in the lives of many homeless. They find solace, protection and companionship through their pets. They care for their pets on limited resources so they themselves have less. Our task, nationwide, is to feed and provide basic emergency veterinary care to their pets and thus relieve the anguish and anxiety of the homeless who cannot provide for their pets.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.

Programs

  1. Pet food and supplies: non-cash awards of pet food (303,106 lbs) and pet supplies were distributed to non-profit organizations (primarily food banks) across the country to assist with the feeding of pets belonging to the homeless and disadvantaged. Pet food and supplies that were purchased by the organization were given to the non-profits. Sleeping crates were shipped directly to non-profit homeless and domestic violence shelters.

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $729k arriving through sponsors registered in 13 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
