Across our Atlanta communities, people are hurting. They’re sleeping outside. They are struggling to survive. They are people just like you and me. They are people like Aria’s dad.
After leaving the military in 2021, Aria’s dad struggled to find stability. But through it all, Aria stayed by his side.
“While I was homeless I would feed her more than myself… get her pup cups, treats and anything I could afford…” Through harassment, uncertainty, and depression, Aria remained his emotional support. And when you are already fighting to survive, the thought of losing the one companion who helped you endure can feel impossible.
That is why our Pets in Crisis Support Program exists. It provides a lifeline. A safety net of time that prevents a temporary crisis from becoming a permanent goodbye. But the list of families who need help is constantly growing and we need more foster families.
Fosters provide temporary care for pets while their owners work toward stability. You are not stepping in to replace a family. You are protecting one. Become a foster for the Pets in Crisis Support Program today. Because every animal deserves care. And every family deserves the chance to stay together.
