SUMMARY
Reflection
I wanted to help animals in need with this project. I have always been big on animal rescue and I have worked with shelters a lot in the past. I feel that I accomplished my goals with this project, and enjoyed the process. I would like to continue work with other shelters in the future to reach more animals.
Project Impact
So many animals are abandoned and forgotten. Animals can be some of the best parts of our lives. I know I will never stop trying to get better treatment for all pets. In the end I had around 500 dollars worth of supplies to donate. It included food, toys, towels, blankets, litter, leashes, and other supplies. The goods were spilt up between four different shelters around the Raleigh and Cary areas.
