Providing care for elderly and special needs dogs is the mission of Bob’s House for Dogs (E3015 County Highway HH, Eleva). Bob’s House gives dogs the peace they need at the end of their lives. Feed My People Food Bank (2610 Alpine Road, Eau Claire) offers terrific programs such as collaborations with Meals on Wheels to bring food to those who are homebound, and their Weekend Kids’ Meals provides food to children who don’t have enough to eat at home. The Eau Claire County Humane Association (3900 Old Town Hall Road, Eau Claire) is dedicated to helping homeless animals find happy homes. – Stephanie Janssen
