Friends Involved with Dog Outreach (F.I.D.O.) would like to ask for your help. 
Since 2009 F.I.D.O has helped tothousands of families feed their pets, with their Dog Food Bank, giving out 4,000 to 6,000 pounds of pet food each month. The last few months the need for their help has increased, in December the distributed over 8,000 pounds of pet food. The increased requests for help have drained F.I.D.O's resources to the point were they expect to be short of meeting January's requests by over 4,000 pounds of pet food.
"For families facing tough financial times, this food is what makes it possible for them to keep their pets at home and out of the shelters." Joni Taylor Executive Director of F.I.D.O. "We depend on donations, right now the demand is far exceeding the donations we have been receiving. We are extremely low on dry dog food, an getting very low on dry cat food."
F.I.D.O.'s Dog Food Bank is held the third Saturday of each month, at the F.I.D.O. Wearhouse in Oregon City, OR., 410 S. Beavercreek Road #517, from 10 am to 1 pm. The next dog food bank with be held on January 15th, only a few days away. F.I.D.O. currently does not have enough food cover the expected requests for that day. They expect to be short by over 4,000 pounds. That's a lot of hungry dogs and cats.
