"With my mother being a single mother and recent cut in her hours it's left me in a harder spot with bills, to really provide my best friend with the things he deserves."
Having one time supplemental help was a great experience for this client!
An unexpected loss of a father and a husband left a family struggling. Upon reading their plea we were able to supply them with food & supplies for their dogs & cats.
When you're on disability it only takes one unexpected expense before you've run out of money. This photo is of one of our cat-dad clients, his cat Mittens, and our Program Director, Taylor. A fun fact about this client is he spends his free time helping underprivileged youth.
Shelter Assistance
Corner of Kindness works to help meet the needs of shelters by providing needed supplies. Our Holiday Giving Program 2018 supplied multiple MN shelters with 496 assistance items!
MEGAN: spayed and fed by CofK. In memory of Megan Pavot.
MAMA: litter after litter her babies would die and she would look for them. Spayed by CofK

UNO: This little dude was a sick kitten. Now Uno is done with antibiotics, fully vetted, sheltered, & well fed.
