My Nonprofit Reviews

I have been volunteering with Paws For Life for five years now. This is one of the most hard-working organizations I have ever come across. It is difficult to sum up what everyone does on a regular basis to keep this rescue moving forward each day. It's stressful, daunting and heart breaking to say the least; and completely fulfilling and loaded with things like love, genuine care, pride in the organization as well as our foster dogs and cats and sometimes hope - for the future ahead of us. And then...along with all that... somehow Paws For Life finds the saddest, loneliest and most heart wrenching cases every week and seems to respond to more than I feel that we are capable of handling. Sometimes we win those battles; but not always. Our dogs and cats are healthy, our adopters are screened and then educated, and our volunteers are mentored until they feel confident in their abilities. Not all non-profits can say that. I am not sure that everyone realizes how much work goes into an organization like this but I have to say that this has to be one of the best. Certainly not the biggest, but one of the best. If you are ever interested in learning about a world that you may never have known existed...a volunteer application is waiting for you;)
