Please consider volunteering at a local animal rescue.

Volunteering at an animal rescue is important because it provides much-needed support to care for and protect vulnerable animals, helping to ensure their health and wellbeing. Volunteers not only assist with daily operations, such as feeding, cleaning, and socializing animals, but they also play a crucial role in raising awareness about animal welfare and adoption. Additionally, volunteering fosters a sense of community, compassion, and responsibility towards animals, enriching the lives of both the volunteers and the pets in their care. Below is where I volunteer.
