Spend the morning giving back to animals in need during Love Animals: Shelter Volunteer Day 🐶🐱 Girl Scouts and their families are invited to volunteer at the Lafayette Animal Shelter & Care Center, helping support the hardworking staff and the pets waiting for their forever homes.

This event is a wonderful opportunity for Girl Scouts to practice compassion, community service, and responsibility while supporting local animals.
