Hi All,
I'm so sorry I missed last Wednesday- I don't know if you missed
me, but I did miss you! I was out last week teaching at the East Oakland Youth
Development Center with some volunteers and Rollie (my dog). It was a really
wonderful experience and we are working on forming an ongoing partnership with
the center and the youth there. The students had all kinds of questions and
insights into the animals in their community and are going to be wonderful
ambassadors for humane treatment of other people, animals and the environment.
(Sorry, no pictures, we were all too engaged! Hopefully next time!)
I've just posted a link
with LOTS of opportunities for helping out all over the place and
all the time. Some of them are quite time sensitive, so do take a look at these
if you have a moment.
A quick thank you to Rob who has been jumping in with
"yes" pretty much whenever we ask if he's free to drive and Whitney who
raised her hands to foster sweet kitties Zoli and Oola.
Apologies for the picture-free email- I'm at home today and am not
smart enough to insert images into the home email set-up. Next time!
Best,
