In my 20 time project, I tried to look into the statistics of homeless animals and animal abuse, mainly, dogs, and see what i could have done to help. I heard a quote one time that said, "If you don't do something, no one will." Ever since i was young, dogs played a huge part in my life. As i grew older, I started to become curious about animal abuse and where dogs with no homes go. I chose this challenge because after my research, i realized that this topic does not get as much awareness that i believe it should. My main goal was to spread awareness for both myself and the rest of the community and do everything that i could have done to help out. When i was looking into animal shelters, i found out that animals that can't find a home are most of the time put to rest. After thinking of ways i could help out, i decided that i wanted to help out at adoption fairs and look out animals without homes find homes. As for animal abuse, i did a lot of research to find out some of the facts. I definately did not get as much done as i hoped but i did learn a lot from my journey. I am not done just yet because i decided that over the summer, i would volunteer at more adoption fairs and when i turn 17, i hope that my opportunities to volunteer at more shelters will open up. This topic is something that i am actually really passionate about and i don't think i am anywhere close to finished.
