Thank-you for following along during #VolunteerApp Thank-you for following along during #VolunteerAppreciationMonth. We also want to extend a very special thank you to those that joined in and shared or commented with your own special stories of our featured volunteers. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ To each and every PADS volunteer: You are so appreciated and valued - this month and every month. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ We received this message from our client Tara, partner to PADS Service Dog Cadence (many of you know her as our Communications Manager and a former puppy-raiser & breeder caretaker): ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ "For so many years I raised puppies and reared litters that I sent off with the words: 'Go be your very best self and change the world'. When these little pieces of my heart left me, I thought I understood the impact they would have. When their clients thanked me I was often moved to tears by what I then understood their impact to be. ⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Today I hold the unique perspective of also being on the receiving end of such a gift from every volunteer that played a part in Cadence's life.⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ I now know that all I imagined and heard was like seeing a beautifully wrapped gift without seeing the riches and love and sweetness inside. PADS volunteers, your time, care and hearts give something that words cannot contain: this gift is freedom, it is joy, it is companionship, it is hope, it is a sweetness that cannot be described. And for that I will never be able to thank you enough. 💙💛💙💛💙"⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ #VolunteerAppreciation
