Earlier this year, Olivia Clayton (9 years old) and her group of friends decided to become junior members of OHS and give the “gift of giving” rather than receiving for their birthdays. Each one of these young individuals will do the same on their birthdays and rather than except gifts on their birthdays – they will make donations to the charity of their choice. Olivia chose Ohlone Humane Society Wildlife Rehabilitation Center.
This selfless act of kindness is mind blowing. Olivia and her mother dropped off their memberships and donations & got a little peak into what we do at the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, which is a one of the many wonderful programs that Ohlone Humane Society has to offer.
This is a very special group of kids and undoubtedly a very special group of parents who have instilled valuable life skills and have taught them to have respect and compassion for all living things. It was a privilege to meet Olivia and her mother Susan.
Because of these young thoughtful individuals, our future just became 6 times brighter than it was yesterday!
Wouldn’t you agree?
