Over the summer of 2018, I spent over 70 hours volunteering at Sunrise Sanctuary. Sunrise Sanctuary is an animal sanctuary that recuses all types of farm animals. While volunteering here, I helped keep the facility running by cleaning barns, refilling water bins, grooming animals, and directing visitors. I also had several opportunities to shadow large animals veterinarians. While volunteering here, I practiced my communication skills, strengthened my leadership skills, and learned about caring for various species.
