I heard an interesting story recently. As part of a little girl’s birthday party, she invited friends to her house. They made dog biscuits and delivered them to Brother Wolf Animal Rescue. They then played with the dogs and cats at the shelter.
At this time of year, it seems everyone becomes a little more charitable minded. Yes, we should think that way year round, but that is not the point of this post.
When you are thinking about charitable stuff to do this time of year, please do not forget our local rescue groups and shelters. The cool thing about helping them is it is usually one of the most affordable things you can do. Times are tough; it is hard to do as much as you would like to do for your favorite charity. Most groups have very reasonably-priced items like bleach or dog treats on their wish lists.
You can also give the gift of time. Dogs and cats would love to have you spend some time with them. The staff also could use some help with chores around the shelter too.
No matter what you decide to do, it will be appreciated. These organizations are usually underfunded and under staffed. They could use any help you can offer.
