The Hotel for Homeless Dogs hasn't added a story.
Tis’ the Season!
Here at The Hotel, we have been very blessed. We truly cannot express how grateful we are for all the support we receive. We could not provide the quality of life for the pups in our care without it. So many people have reached out and asked if they could provide gifts for the pups that are here for the holiday. With the amount of people already adopting our pups for the season, we honestly do not need anything else currently. For that reason, we are asking our community to help us to help those in need.
Initially, our intent was to adopt three families. Then one of the members of our Hotel community reached out and told us about a heartbreaking situation. There was a flood at a homeless shelter here in Rhode Island. Upwards of 30 families were displaced once again and moved into hotel rooms. There is a total of 54 children and 31 adults living in this situation with more than 67 additional families living in cars and outdoors due to lack of space. This is obviously a huge undertaking. We have joined forces with The Pawtucket Firefighters Local 1261 and are committed to providing whatever is needed for the residents of the Amos House.
That said, there is no way we can do this on our own. This will take a village. We have tried to make gift giving as easy as possible and have provided many options so you can choose what’s best and what is easiest for you. Hasbro Inc., who is always giving back to the community, has very generously offered to donate toys to the children.
We have created an Amazon Wish List: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2CO1TFMOOLNY?ref_=wl_share
You can donate to the GoFundMe that will fund gift cards as well as cupcakes for Christmas. It will also be used to fill in any gaps we might have in donations.
