Description

Household pets are an important part of our community, making thousands of homes feel more complete. Yet due to neglect or abuse, many pets are in need of foster care or adoption. Learn from experts at the Animal Welfare League how you can care for our furry friends–whether or not you rescue a pet. During this event, children in our afterschool program will participate in the Animal Welfare League’s “Paws And Read” program, where kids improve their literacy skills by reading to pets.
