FOS Education

 

Friends of the Shelter believe that education is the best way to make a difference in reducing the number of unwanted animals in Bell County.  To that end, we sponsor annual subscriptions to KIND NEWS, a bi-monthly newspaper written by Red Rover Foundation for children in elementary school. Red Rover is a national animal welfare organization that provides educational materials that foster empathy and compassion in school age children. FOS currently provides 30 newspapers to 18 classrooms in Bell County.

​

FOS further seeks to provide information to the public about pet care, spay/neuter benefits, and humane pet care through printed newspaper articles, our Facebook page, website, and printed pamphlets.
