“If It Has A Dirty Surface, We Can Clean It”<br />

FOSTER CHILDREN: PREPARATION FOR ADULT LIVING (PAL)<br />

When foster children reach age 18, they are considered independent.<br />

That’s difficult for kids who have been wards of the state, with necessities<br />

arranged by caseworkers with state funds. Now they’ll have to figure out<br />

how to organize themselves and make their money last a whole month.<br />

Fortunately, Child protective Services offers them a program to help prepare<br />

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<br />

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

computer kiosks sponsored by local businesses. Want to help with PAL or<br />

other NCJW programs that help change lives with hands-on community<br />

service? Contact info@ncjwhouston.org or see www.ncjwhouston.org.<br />

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR DREAM DACHSHUND RESCUE<br />

DREAM Dachshund Rescue, Education & Adoption Mission is a Houstonbased<br />

501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to rescuing abandoned<br />

Dachshunds and finding new homes for Dachshunds whose owners can no<br />

longer care for them. Our committed volunteers, working closely with local<br />

veterinarians, provide our Dachshunds with quality medical care and loving<br />

foster homes until they are adopted into carefully screened, forever homes.<br />

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

foster care for our many rescued Dachshunds-in-need, currently awaiting<br />

adoption. Prior to their adoption, DREAM continues to pay for all<br />

medical care and monthly heart worm prevention. There is no long-term<br />

commitment required. Food, water, shelter and a soft place to rest is all<br />

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

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

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

START THE NEW YEAR WITH A<br />

NEW BEST FRIEND AND FAMILY MEMBER!<br />

Loving Arms Pet Placement has an assortment of wonderful dogs and cats<br />

hoping for their forever homes. We have all different types of small to large<br />

dogs, mixed breeds and many wonderful cats to choose from. We are a<br />

foster-based rescue for dogs and cats. If you are not ready to commit to<br />

adopting a dog or cat permanently, the animals also need foster families.<br />

Besides providing food, water and a safe place to sleep, foster families<br />

socialize the animals so they are people friendly. Include the animal in<br />

your daily home life inside your home. Get to know them as individuals so<br />

you can share personality traits, likes/dislikes, anecdotes. Treat the animal<br />

like your own and train him/her, if possible. Although you may feel sadness<br />

when your foster animal is adopted, please know that your efforts helped<br />

to prepare the cat or dog for his/her forever home. Visit Loving Arms Pet<br />

Placement website at www.lovingarmspetplacement.com or visit us at<br />

Petsmart on Highway 6 and FM 529 each Saturday from 11 AM until 5 PM.<br />
