Volunteer Students Talk About Animal Rescue

MANCHESTER – Six 4th Grade Ridgeway Elementary School students who are part of a Junior Volunteer Program at All Fur One Rescue (AFO) in Toms River visited Mrs. Palmer’s third-grade class. The third-grade students will be working on an assignment that revolves around All Fur One Rescue over the next couple of weeks and the Junior Volunteers wanted to provide background information to the students about All Fur One Rescue and their mission. They shared what it is like to volunteer as well as about some of the long-term resident cats looking for homes.

The 4th Grade Junior Volunteers did a fabulous job!
