The Communications department would like to thank all of the volunteers who submitted entries to our first-ever blog contest. All of the entries happened to be essays, and they were all a joy to read. Thank you so much for inspiring us!
Our judge, Cris Winter of WISH Radio, wrote, “All of these stories touched me in different ways. It was difficult to choose my favorites because everyone had various and wonderful reasons for being at Animal Friends. Every volunteer should be commended for the dedication and compassion that they show for all the animals!”
