Week 4 - Rescued Critters Food Drive

Hi Folks,

Our First Year's Goal is to Donate

4,333.3 Pounds (2.2 tons) of Pet Food

That’s a lot but we have a really good jump on it. Only about 25% of the Miles neighborhood has be canvased to date. It will take perhaps 8 more Sundays to get around to everyone to ask if they wish to participate. Even with our participants so far, we are averaging 59.5 lbs. of food each week. The goal average is 83.3 lbs. per week.

Here are the numbers: 75 neighbors donate $1.00 per week x 52 weeks = $3,900.00. With Pima Animal Care Center’s $0.90 per pound purchasing power, $3,900.00 turns into 4,333.3 lbs. of pet food or 2.2 tons.

We can do this.

2018 Rescued Critters Food Drive Third Quarter Report

Signed Up 9 More Participants

on E. 13th Street

Although it was still quite hot, I got a burst of energy
when I stopped to talk to my neighbors on 13^th Street. It had been nearly two years since we last spoke, but it was like All Home Week. (Yep, I come from the Midwest via the Big Apple.) Anyway, neighbor after neighbor wanted to help and they were happy to see I was back at it.

We collected 8.4 lbs. of pet food, some treats, a couple of dog bowls, and $49.16 in cash.

See you Sunday,

Peter
