Hi Fosters and Volunteers,
Hope you all are
doing well! This has been a pretty exciting and busy week around here. Today we
were featured in a live
chat by the Chronicle of Philanthropy about microvolunteering and
welcomed new volunteers from Toolworks, a group that helps adults with
disabilities get job skills. Sam and Trisha went did a tour de shelter today
and sprung some dogs and cats and Erica planned the arrival of some puppies!
Our humane education program has been kickstarted- we’ll be teaching 5
classes next week, and it’s not too late to bring Hopalong to a school near
you- bring the message of kindness to the kids in time for the holidays!
In adoption news, Dallas the Dog found his forever
home and kittens continue to find new scratching posts (read: couches).
Coming up, we still have many
spaces open for Santa Paws so check
out the dates and times and let me know when you’d like to join us! We also
invite you to join the Cat Care Team at Woodlands in Marin- there
will be an orientation
this Friday in Mill Valley. If you’re in Marin or have friends in Marin, please
let them know about this cuddling opportunity!
And of course you’ve already marked your calendar for
December 5th at 5:30, but that’s our Very Fun Volunteer and
Foster Appreciation Party. I’ve set up a place to RSVP,
and if you can take a minute to do that between now and then, it will help me
know how many dinners to tell Juliet to cook. (Just checking if you’re still
reading.)
Thank you, everyone, for all of your work!
