JEARS FOOD DRIVE TO SUPPORT THE FUKUSHIMA RESCUES
Now that so many animals have been rescued, the need to take care of them and feed them didn't go away. JEARS has wisely arranged to be supplied from Costco Japan, where they are really making your donations go a long way. The strong yen combined with Costco pricing is really going to help the donations buy a lot of high quality dog and cat food.

Letter from Trixie
Hello dear Facebook friends,
This is Trixie here and I am sorry I look so sad in this picture. I have just heard some really bad news. Our food supplies at JEARS are running out very, very quickly and it doesn't sound like we have enough food to get us through February.
We are all very worried. Our caretakers are going to run a big pledge this week to see if we can raise enough money to keep both shelters in stock to get us through the winter.
We are going to team up with Costco as they have very nice quality food at very reasonable prices. Can you please help us? A donation of $30 will buy a 40lb bag of dog food, $25 will buy a 20 lb bag of cat food and $15 will buy a 20lb bag of puppy food.
We are going to run the chip in for the next week and are setting a big goal of 1000 bags of food!! I am personally in charge of running the fundraiser and giving all of our dear supporters updates every day as to how many bags have been pledged. Please help me to make this a success so I don't get demoted (like Samu did hehe).
The chip in will also be available on the jears.net website so if you have friends who would like to help us but are not on Facebook they can make their pledge that way. Please share the link on your own Facebook pages so we can try and reach as many people as possible. It is hard to believe that nearly a year has passed since the terrible tragedy that hit us, and that so many of us are still without families. We could not have got through this past year without all of your love, support and generosity. We will never be able to thank you enough for the care and concern you have shown us but please know that in all of our furry hearts weare eternally grateful.
Love,
