Special Cheers Needs Volunteers<br />

Special CHEERS is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to providing Occupational<br />

Therapy to children with special needs of all ages living in and around the greater Houston<br />

area. Our facility is unique in that we utilize animals, including horses, dogs, goats, pigs,<br />

lambs and rabbits as an integral part of each child’s therapy treatment plan. Being a nonprofit<br />

organization, we are constantly looking for extra help around the farm. Therefore,<br />

Special CHEERS would like to welcome all high school and college-aged students<br />

interested in working with both children and animals to volunteer after school, on the<br />

weekends or seasonally (i.e., summer camp). Please call our director, Ms. Fritzi, at 713-<br />

983-0075, for more information. A background check will be required of all individuals<br />

applying for a volunteer position at our facility.<br />

Foster Children: Preparation<br />

For Adult Living (Pal)<br />

When foster children reach age 18, they are considered independent. That’s difficult for<br />

kids who have been wards of the state, with necessities arranged by caseworkers with<br />

state funds. Now they’ll have to figure out how to organize themselves and make their<br />

money last a whole month. Fortunately, Child protective Services offers them a program<br />

to help prepare for independence: Preparation for Adult Living (PAL). The year-long course<br />

culminates in an all-day workshop hosted by the National Council for Jewish Women<br />

(NCJW). The course is held at Junior Achievement’s BizTown, using computer kiosks<br />

sponsored by local businesses. Want to help with PAL or other NCJW programs that help<br />

change lives with hands-on community service? Contact info@ncjwhouston.org or see<br />

Volunteers Needed For Dream Dachshund Rescue<br />

DREAM Dachshund Rescue, Education & Adoption Mission is a Houston-based 501(c)<br />

(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to rescuing abandoned Dachshunds and finding<br />

new homes for Dachshunds whose owners can no longer care for them. Our committed<br />

volunteers, working closely with local veterinarians, provide our Dachshunds with quality<br />

medical care and loving foster homes until they are adopted into carefully screened,<br />

forever homes.<br />

DREAM is currently looking for caring volunteers to provide temporary foster care for our<br />

many rescued Dachshunds-in-need, currently awaiting adoption. Prior to their adoption,<br />

DREAM continues to pay for all medical care and monthly heart worm prevention. There is<br />

no long-term commitment required. Food, water, shelter and a soft place to rest is all you<br />

need to provide. The “love” just comes naturally.<br />

Questions? Please send us an email to: Contact-Us@DreamDachs.org and a volunteer will<br />

respond to you right away with all the information you need!<br />

Ready to Foster? Please visit our website at: www.dreamdachs.org and click on the<br />
