Let's celebrate our top Dio volunteer with SVA (Student Volunteer Army) for the year. Congratulations to Caitlin Wright, who logged in 247.9 hours of volunteer service. Over the year, she has fostered four dogs for Mobility Dogs. All were near the end of their training programmes and aged between six months and two years old.
Mobility dogs are trained to help people living with a disability with everyday tasks. They also provide companionship, emotional support and a connection to the community. Caitlin's volunteer work included supporting their training, teaching the dogs specific skills their new owners might need, and walking, cleaning and feeding them daily. The dogs stayed at her home for several months until they passed their final exams and left to be matched with a client for placement in their forever homes. Great mahi, Caitlin.
