| ABOUT KIDS AND ANIMALS | |||
| One of the first questions we are often asked by people
whom we approach for financial assistance is “we understand
that animals are suffering but what of the needy children?”
|
|||
| We well understand that there is a direct relationship between abuse of animals and abuse of children. | |||
Because of that, my
co-workers and I are very active in many organizations that help
needy children. There are Amigos de los Ninos, DIF, League of MAC,
the Capitans school, Xmas toy drives; the Paylapa Society Scolarship
Fund; to name a few; all set up
to help with medical care, food, clothing, transportation, housing
and education. |

| Our interest in the well being of the children ties
in with animal welfare. We have already approached several teachers
with positive results. Several lower grades drew pictures of their
favorite animals which were displayed in a local gallery and sold
to benefit spay/neuter. The kids involved learned lessons of humane
care which were reinforced by the use of the sale money for a good
cause. Our plans definitely include opening our sanctuary to visiting
school children and bringing in local vets for talks on animal care.
The hope for positive long term change in the views that the society
holds on violence and abuse lies with the children. |
