I don’t remember now how exactly I discovered Pawssion Project, but I do know it was before the pandemic happened, and I’d had aspirations of becoming a volunteer even back then. Fast forward to 2023, and I saw a call for volunteers on their Instagram page; I signed up and that was it! I became a Pawssion Project volunteer!

I initially signed up as one of their content creators, but immediately realized I couldn’t contribute as much because of my day job and other author-related activities. Even volunteering at events became a bit tricky schedule-wise, because my weekends were always busy. And when they’re not, I’m almost always catching up on sleep.

Anyway, I was able to volunteer at the Bobba’s Backyard Pet Expo event this weekend, and it was a lot of fun. We got to raise over P100,000 for the shelter and new rescues in need of urgent care! It was amazing to meet people who share the same love and compassion for strays and abandoned animals, and I truly hope to see a world where every stray and homeless dog and cat find their furever homes.
