Audrey was one of the many people who participated in the annual fundraiser for the animals of PAWS, called PAWSwalk! She was inspired when her school challenged each student to pick a charitable organization to support. Audrey was of course going to choose PAWS! She loves animals and wants to help them feel safe. Audrey and her friend worked together to make flyers and cookies and went around her neighborhood and explained that they were collecting pet supplies and raising money for PAWS. Audrey’s favorite part of the project was that she was helping homeless animals be taken care of and given a safe home. She has a dog of her own and he’s very important to her. She hopes that other kids can take care of animals from PAWS.

- It’s very important to Audrey that all pets have a safe home.
Project Impact:
