| Description Program Service Accom | Basic Needs Foundation, Inc. provides food for very low income working homeless people who live in their vehicles with children and pets and whose average income is net $475 per month. One of our goals is to reduce the number of mouths that poor families have to feed with their limited income by mean of spaying/neutering their pets via Mobile Clinics.We also provide pet food for their homeless low-income dog & cat owners who need immediate pet food assistance, cat food for feral cats (originally they were domestic pets) through feeders and we find homes for pets when their homeless owners can no longer care for them.Many animals are abandoned by their owners who cannot afford to feed their pets. Their owners lost jobs, have homes in foreclosures, and evictions. Many people end up living in their cars.Accountability and dignity are the two focuses of our community programs. We serve 29 working homeless families who have been living in their vehicles for over 10 months. Requirements and benefits of our program include the following: - The homeless children of these families must have a passing grade in school.- The working homeless families receive health club memberships for shower and family time in a safe environment.- They receive a Senior TracFone, http://seniorvaluecellphone.com for job search.- One spouse from each family is required to attend the Home Health Aide class at a local vocational school and the program lasts six months.- Upon receiving the Home Health Aide certificate, they can find full time employment at $10 - $12/hour as Home Health Aides so that they have enough income to move into small apartments. Baby boomers face shortage of home health aides and jobs are plentiful in this industry.- Twenty-nine poverty stricken, working, homeless families are selected for our community program. We do not accept candidates who are alcoholics, drug dependent, or are mentally health challenged as we are not equipped to serve them.Several local businesses have generously sponsored some essential items for these homeless families (TracFone, health club memberships, safe places to park vehicles at night, motel vouchers for Thanksgiving and Christmas stay, and discount vet care). Twelve of the 25 original homeless families are no longer living in their vehicles since 2009 because of our program. The children no longer live in fear that they may be stigmatized by their classmates if their homeless status becomes known. They have moved into their own places and have actual addresses to call homes.- Thirty seven pets have been re-homed successfully because their owners can no longer afford to keep them in their vehicles.- We provided two days of Fix Your Pets - free spaying and neutering to poverty stricken pet owners in rural towns of Onyx, Weldon, South Lake, Squirrel Valley, Bodfish, Wofford Heights, Lake Isabella, and Mountain Mesa of Kern County, California. One hundred ten pets have been neutered or spayed through the hired Mobile Spay/Neuter clinic. We saw poverty stricken owners and children bring their dogs and cats to our spay and neuter clinics, grinning from ear to ear, proud that they were doing the right thing for their pets. - 220 feral cats had been fixed under Trap/Neuter/Release (T.N.R.) with the help of two veterinarian offices in Los Angeles county and local feral cat feeders.Please help us to continue these services in 2013 by donating to our cause. Thank you for your support! | DescriptionProgramServiceAccom |
