Kindergarten and 4th grade buddies worked together to support Take Paws Rescue, a volunteer, foster-based, non-profit rescue group. Take Paws finds animals loving foster families as they await a forever home. The buddies wrote notes of appreciation and encouragement that foster families will receive when they take in a foster animal. They collected items for foster families to be used at Take Paws' Stray Café. Take Paws volunteers and foster dogs Oogie Boogie, Muffin, and Lil Bit visited to share about their organization and collect the students' letters and donations!!
