Donation Dive for Arrow’s Heart Animal Rescue
Check out Sara’s Organize and Activity! First, she decided to collect donations for Arrow’s Heart animal shelter. She asked friends and family to contribute.

They collected donations at the PetSmart and also donated 10% of their profits from selling food to the cause. Wow!

The Ruff Start Rescue
“Overall, my goal is to bring awareness to this outstanding organization by encouraging the public to attend an adoption day, to donate their time, money or goods, and to promote the adoption or fostering of a rescued animal …We need to teach the next generations to also be compassionate about all of the creatures on our Earth. We do this by teaching ethics. Performing volunteer work or giving of oneself to another living being fosters a feel-good feeling and it can snowball into even more support and help from others. I believe this is how our world should live.” – Jennifer Continue reading
