Objective 7 Do people interact differently, with each other,
when animals are concerned? How is the safety and security of the
animal dealt with between the organization and the people who want
to adopt? Are people more likely to spontaneously adopt when they
actually see the pets, and then they dont really take their
situation into consideration?
Slide 8
Background 8 EAPL has been around for a long time, I can
remember it from when I was a kid and went to a lot of different
community events. Animals have always been around me and so this
organization was perfect for me.
Slide 9
Background 9 First I went to the website and found pretty much
all of the information I needed to volunteer or adopt. The site is
easy to use and is updated fairly regularly. The Facebook page is
updated even more and there are tons of people who share this
groups ideas and supports them.
Slide 10
Background 10 Several local businesses support EAPL, Chow Down,
a local pet supply shop, is one of them. They house the cat room,
which is most of the cats that are waiting to be adopted. They have
provided a great place for these animals; it is clean and well
kept.
Slide 11
Chow Down 11 They are also pet friendly and are happy to
welcome in your dog or cat.
Slide 12
Chow Down 12 All the employees are helpful kind and can tell
you just about anything and everything you would want or need to
know.
Slide 13
Cat Room 13 The clean and warm facility provided by Chow Down
to house the cats that dont have permanent homes yet. Which is kept
up by only volunteers.
Slide 14
Cat Room 14 This show all of the cats in to cat room that need
to be adopted. It also shows which ones that need to be adopted
together for those who just cant have one cat and need more.
Slide 15
Cat Room 15 This is the white board that depicts which cats
have been adopted. And where to go to start the adoption
process.
Slide 16
Cat Room 16 Cleaning the cat boxes is part of volunteering in
the cat room. It provides them a clean and hygienic place to
go.
Slide 17
Cat Room 17 Everyday the cats get fresh food and water.

Slide 19
Thrift Store 19 There are all sorts of signs and designs that
tell you what you are supporting, by buying or donating things from
the EAPL store.
Slide 20
Thrift Store 20 The people there have good times sorting
through all of the donations and get some funny jokes about some of
the stranger things that pass through the store.
Slide 21
Thrift Store 21 At the thrift store there are tons of cool
donated stuff to buy. Volunteering in the thrift store you get to
see all the awesome things that people bring in.
Slide 22
Thrift Store 22 There are seasonal things available as
well.
Slide 23
Thrift Store 23 People work tirelessly to set up the things
that people bring in. Some people there are allergic to animals and
cant have pets of their own but still want to support the
cause.
Slide 24
Pet Adoption 24 Adopting form the EAPL entails filling out an
application.
Slide 25
Pet Adoption 25 There are so many different types of animals
available for adoption. The older dogs make just as good best
friends as puppies.
Slide 26
Pet Adoption 26 If you want to find out anything about the
animals that you see you can always contact one of the volunteers
or the foster home. All of the volunteers are very friendly and
want to inform you to there full extent.
Slide 27
Pet Adoption 27 When it comes to adoption people are always
wanting and screening for good families that are sure to have
considered everything in their lives and making sure their new
buddy will fit in.
Slide 28
Pet Adoption 28 And remember that you dont want to get a pet
for a gift unless the person you are getting the pet for has met
the animal and knows about the adoption.
Slide 29
Overall 29 I found that people want these animals to go into
acceptable homes were the owners will love and care for the animal
forever. People are kind and helpful and more than willing to clue
you in on things you would need to know about the future pet, they
are even overly zealous sometimes. These people care so much for
animals that they are willing to take time out of their busy
schedules and look after these animals and volunteer for their
cause.
Slide 30
Overall 30 People who cant have animals because of allergies or
because of their personal situation have still found was to
participate in this organization. There are more ways than just
adopting an animal to help them out.
Slide 31
Donate Donations The Evergreen Animal Protective League is a
non-profit organization, staffed entirely by caring volunteers. We
have no paid employees and are not supported by taxes. All funding
comes from donations from the public, from grants, and from fund
raising activities. 31
Slide 32
Donate Donations make it possible for us to meet our mission
statement: to continue provide aid to lost, abandoned and suffering
animals through rescue, shelter, and education. None of this work
would be possible without financial support from people who care.
