  • Glitter Rose is a strong supporter of The Bridge Homeless Assistance Campus, a 501 (c) 3 member organization.  In her recent visits to the facility, she discovered that The Bridge has a kennel for the homeless with pets and the kennel was shut down, due to insufficient funding.  If the kennel is shut down, the homeless with pets cannot enter the facility, which is keeping them from getting the help they need to move forward.   

    GR has decided to start the "Kennel Donation Can" Program to re-open The Kennel at The Bridge and keep it maintained, so the homeless who's best friend is their pet, can come into the facility, get help, and also get health care and nutrition for their furry friends.  The first 10 cans have been distributed to small businesses throughout the metro-plex and a successful start has enabled the Kennel to be re-opened!  If you are interested in getting a can put into your business, please contact Nissy Mathew at The Bridge via email: nmathew@mdhadallas.org.  If you would like to donate to The Kennel at The Bridge, please send a check to The Bridge Homeless Assistance Campus, ATTN: Kennel Donations, 1818 Corsicana, Dallas, TX 75201.
     
 
"Thank you for your support, every little bit helps!"
