Week 32 - Rescued Critters Food Drive

Hi Folks,

72 Participants x $1.00 Each x 

52 Weeks ÷ $0.90 Cost Per Pound of Pet Food = 4,333 lbs. Donated to PACC in One Year

That’s how I came up with our Miles Neighborhood PACC donation goal. Well, it turns out the formula never took into account how generous and involved in animal welfare my neighbors really are. We just finished our second full quarter and the results indicate that we will crush that proposed goal. The graphic below speaks volumes.

We are now at Week 32 with 20 more weeks to go and there are 52 participants, not 72. In the first year of One Can A Week, we donated 9,203.5 lbs. of food to the Community Food Bank and $1,953.38 in cash. Even with fewer participants, we may match or surpass those numbers. It’s going to be fun to watch the weekly results pile up. This week we donated two large stainless steel bowls, a huge white blanket, one small pet bed, 75.7 lbs. of pet food and $57.69 in cash and two checks. See you Sunday, Peter
