Jordan YCS Community Service Day at Kiddies 2 Kitties

Posted on by PAHS Staff

Wednesday, March 29, was the Day of Service for YCS (Youth Community Service) at Jordan Middle School in Palo Alto, and a contingent of volunteers visited Kiddies 2 Kitties at SVACA (Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority) in Santa Clara. SVACA partners with PAHS for the Kiddies 2 Kitties shelter-based reading and community service program.

The Jordan students learned about shelter operations and enjoyed helping to socialize SVACA’s adoptable cats. The cats were very happy to receive all the extra attention! Thank you, Jordan YCS, for your participation in our program.

The Palo Alto Humane Society is a 501(c) 3 nonprofit, charitable, volunteer-supported organization. PAHS is one of the few humane societies nationwide with no animal shelter. Instead of managing animals inside a shelter, we work to keep animals out of the shelter through humane programs in intervention, advocacy, and education. For a century, our mission has been to alleviate the suffering of animals, increase public sensitivity to animal issues, and elevate the status of animals in our society.
