I'm finally officially a "member" per say of our local foster agency and I am thrilled!! I've been helping them as a foster home here and there, but all along the way I've been asking them if there was more I could do to help out, but wasn't getting very far. Not because they didn't need the help or anything, but I just think it's because they are so busy they really haven't had time to stop and say "HEY! We've got someone looking to help out here". These poor people have their hands full!
So finally today I spent a few hours at the local adoption clinic they run and now I am the official photographer for the foster agency!! That and I'm also now on the committee to help raise money for the local shelter we're trying to build.
Our town doesn't have a shelter - we've just got this one wonderful couple (certified with the state) who runs a shelter out of her house for the entire city. A HUGE job! And the next town over only has a teeny shelter about the size of someones garage (maximum capacity 21 animals!!). So both towns have started working together to build a nice big shelter we can both use and the woman in my town running the home shelter started the whole ball rolling. She's awesome!!! She has now formed a committee and I'm on it! We're doing all kinds of things - house to house information, selling candy bars, spaghetti dinners, etc. There's tons of events and I'm thrilled to finally be fully involved!!!
So today I spent a few hours taking pictures of some beautiful kitties up for adoption and I go Wednesday to her home to take tons more!
