Answer 1

“I have been volunteering with the animal shelter in my community for three years. When I came in as a volunteer, the staff was trying to increase adoption rates. I researched three other animal shelters and rescues to figure out what they were doing to increase their success rates. In this research, I found that all three were hosting events in their buildings, which increased the rate of adoption.

I discussed my findings with the volunteer coordinator, who approved my request to host a holiday-themed event for families. I worked with the staff and my fellow volunteers to plan activities and food to serve at the event. I also designed flyers and shared information about the event through the shelter’s social media channels. More than 150 people came to the event, which resulted in 50 pet adoptions.”
