How to Celebrate National Animal Shelter Appreciation Week
How to Celebrate National Animal Shelter Appreciation Week
Rescue animals offer so many benefits to countless individuals: companionship, love, encouragement to be active, and so much more! During National Animal Shelter Appreciation Week — which stretches from November 7-13 — it is more important than ever to honor the vital work that animal shelters do.
Here are some tips for how to celebrate:
Donate to Your Local Shelter
Animal shelters do vital work caring for the millions of stray animals across the country. But they are perpetually underfunded, and typically rely on donations for a substantial portion of their budgets.
This year, consider making a donation to your local animal shelter to show your appreciation for the essential work that they do. Without them, a lot of animals — and a lot of people — would be far worse off.
Volunteer
Many shelters can use help from individuals who love animals. If you have some extra time, reach out to your local shelter about volunteering. It is a great way to show you care about their work, while also making some new animal friends!
Adopt a Shelter Animal
One of the most essential ways to support animal shelters is to adopt rescued animals. Shelters only have the capacity to care for so many creatures, and there are always new animals coming in. Bringing a new friend into your home will help free up space at your local shelter while adding a new member to your family!
