We know that pets bring huge benefits to our lives, and pets deserve loving homes and great care. Around the world, millions of cats and dogs remain in shelters or living on the street. We believe they deserve more and tackling this issue is central to our Purpose: A Better World For Pets.   That’s why Mars together with a coalition of NGOs and animal welfare experts launched the State of Pet Homelessness Project. This open-source data project sets out to understand the size of the problem by analysing the data from over 900 global and local sources, along with almost 30,000 public surveys and 200 expert interviews. It aims to help to move from treating the symptoms to tackling the root causes. Big thanks to our teams for working with our external partners to bring this important project to life.   Visit https://lnkd.in/dC-FPWfy to get to know more.   #ABetterWorldForPets #StateOfPetHomelessnessProject #ProudlyMars

We know that housing issues are a top reason why pets are separated from their families and are not able to find new homes. We took a look at the pet-friendly vs. pet-inclusive rental housing landscape in Michigan, and we found that no market is above 13% when it comes to more pet-inclusive policies. We hope that animal welfare organizations and others are able to use this data to help guide conversations around increasing access to pet-inclusive housing. https://lnkd.in/edQAmJfD #research #petinclusive #housing #animalshelters

Before diving into the specifics of transferring assets, it's crucial to identify and articulate the values that define your family. What principles and beliefs have shaped your family's identity—a commitment to charity or public service? Inclusion of others? Promoting animal welfare or an environmentally friendly lifestyle? Understanding what values are most important to your family may help you provide a framework to align the wealth transfer process with what matters most. #LegacyOfLove #FinancialAdvisor #ThousandOaks
