“I thank God for the love he gave me for all animals, not just the ones I share my home with. There is nothing more mentally and physically rewarding than representing the interests of those who are often marginalized and misunderstood. This experience is helping me foster empathy and kindness. I am forever grateful for this opportunity!”
