I Support the Alameda Animal Shelter

A new year, new start. As we set our eyes to bigger and better goals for the new year, I would like to share with you an opportunity to continue to be a blessing to “others” in this coming year. I have been supporting an organization that is very near and dear to my heart. The Friends of the Alameda Animal Shelter (FAAS) has been founded by a group of volunteers in 2009 initially to raise funds for the medical care for the animals at the Alameda Animal Shelter. Due to fortuitous circumstances, these same volunteers ended up taking over the management of the shelter in 2012 and the rest, as they say, is history.

Today, the FAAS shelters and cares for the lost and abandoned animals of Alameda, California, and this is your chance to be a blessing to these wonderful creatures! Here’s how:



Adopt a Pet – There are lots of wonderful animals in the shelter just waiting for Good Samaritans to bring them to their new homes. Whether you are dog lover or a cat person, you will surely find a very good companion just waiting to be adopted in the shelter. And even if you are not fond of dogs or cats, you will surely fall in love with the rabbits!



Make a Donation – Let’s take this off immediately out of the table, any amount will do. Any amount that you can donate will be a big help to all of the animals who not only need immediate medical attention but to all the animals who call the shelter their temporary home. The good news is that you can make donations not only via the monetary kind but you can also shop to donate! Joining a rewards program that donates to your favorite charity is a win-win situation! You get the merchandise you need and the Friends of Alameda Animal Shelter gets the much needed monetary support it needs. So if you do most of your shopping online, please consider making purchases through AmazonSmile, the charity organization of Amazon. When you choose Friends of the Alameda Animal Shelter as your charity, it will donate 0.5% of your purchase to FAAS.

Volunteer at FAAS – One of the best gifts an organization can receive is the gift of time. Like most organizations, FAAS relies on volunteers to walk the dog, take care of the cats, wok the kennels, or put in some office work perhaps. Whatever it is that you can commit to, your time will go a long way to making sure that the animals are well-taken care of.



There is no universal answer to the question “why adopt a pet”? There are people who will say that you will know when the time comes. And yet, there are people who will insist that you will never know. Whatever the answer to this question is, one thing is certain: adopting a pet means commitment. When the time comes that you feel you are ready, go visit the Alameda Animal Shelter. There will always be someone waiting for you there.
