The Best Friends Podcast Episode 5
Volunteers - Powering Lifesaving Everywhere
April 23rd, 2020
Feeling a little blue? The Pitt County Animal Shelter just might have the cure… if you're game enough to let it all hang out!
And it’s National Volunteer Week! We visited with a volunteer in Philly who hasn’t let a pandemic slow down her support for her local shelter. And a conversation with Gina Knepp, former director of the City of Sacramento Animal Shelter and now the Director of Shelter Outreach with Michelson Found Animals, who says trust is what matters the most when working with volunteers.
