A cross-curricular project, Third Graders are partnering with Reed's Rescue to help senior dogs find a forever home. Students began by writing persuasive paragraphs about adoptable dogs which will be posted on social media to drive interest and awareness about their four-legged friends.
Students also embroidered bandanas for dogs in art class, featuring the dogs' names. The bandanas were delivered to dogs who are currently being fostered.
Last week, students even received a visit from Reed's Rescue to better understand the dogs they are helping!
Reeds Rescue is a non-profit volunteer dog rescue organization serving the Northern Baltimore County area. They are dedicated to rescuing dogs of senior age or deemed to be terminally ill from area shelters, dogs given up by their owners because of difficult circumstances and those in danger of decompensating in the shelter environment. Reed's Rescue strives to work with area shelters, the community and other rescues to develop a network of supporters to create a better world for the elderly and terminal pets.
