WWDTI Part 3

 The organization I would like to create would be one that specializes in improved animal shelters. I think one of the reasons that people don't choose to adopt animals from shelters is because often times the animals can look sad and unfriendly when they're locked in cages. However, creating improved shelters that prioritizes the well-being of the animals will likely increase their chances of being adopted.

At these new and improved shelters, there are many services that I think would be important to incorporate in order to ensure that animals are well taken care of.

1. Improved Facilities and Housing: I think in order to make the animals at shelters seem more friendly, they should have access to large grass areas so that they may roam and socialize with other animals. If someone saw that these animals were playful and saw how active and friendly they can be, they would be more likely to adopt them. Instead of having the animals in such confined cages, that are often dark and grey, allowing them to roam in an enclosed grass area would allow potential adopters to be able to engage with the animal. Additionally, the animal would not appear as sad as they might have if they were in cages.

2. Adoption Counseling: One important service that I think would be important to offer would be counseling. Often times people are quick to adopt animals that they know nothing about. As a shelter, it is important for us to do our duty and make sure that these animals are going home to responsible pet owners. We can give them guidance on the personality of the animal, some special requirements it might have, and suggestions on keeping their pet happy and healthy.

3. Surrender Service: Another important service to have would be surrender services. While it is always sad to see someone give up their pet, sometimes they have to make this choice because they are not capable of giving the animal the life it deserves. In these instances we will take the animal being surrendered. This service is important because instead of people choosing to abandon or abuse their pets for not being how they expected, they can surrender them to our shelter with no judgement. 


While these are some practice and services that are already implemented by other shelters, I would love to do my part in taking care of animals however I can. I think it is important to educate people on the quality and care that animals need and deserve and that they have compassion for them. With improved shelters, I think that more people will adopt from them and there will be less of a need for breeding different pets.

Book 2 Post 1

The book I have chosen to read for Book 2 is The Wayfinders . While I also considered Feel Good Productivity , as I am a chronic procrastinator, I ultimately decided against it. I think what interest me the most about The Wayfinders is the opportunity to learn about new and different cultures. Especially when it comes to something as abstract as 'what it means to be human and alive'. I think cultures always have their own personal and profound ways of explaining things that we don't necessarily have correct answers to.  I have just purchased the book, but upon reading the reviews I am intrigued as to what I will think of it. There seems to be tons of great reviews, with lots of them saying that there is the opportunity to learn about indigenous beliefs and how in modern times we seem to "dismiss the achievements of indigenous people". The reviews also mention how the book talks about how fragile cultures are , with the ability to disappear at any moment. As someon...

Senior Scaries As February nears its end, I have no choice but to become more worried and more stressed as graduation in May approaches. Lately I feel like there is so much to do and so little time left to do it. Sometimes I can't help but wonder if people are feeling the same sort of anxiety that I am feeling about graduating. Although it should be super exciting, as it is an amazing achievement, I am worried about what happens after. Additionally, there is so much preparation to do be done prior to the actual date. Although some thing are more so mundane tasks, their addition to the list of "Things To Do" does not make completing the tasks any less daunting. Some of the things currently on my list: buy senior portraits, customize and order sash, order cap and gown, buy a dress, schedule graduation photos, make plans for a post graduation family celebration (taking suggestions!). Most important on my list, GET A JOB! As someone who has not yet secured a job following gra...

To: Clark Hansen, CEO of AMDP From: Vivian Cardenas, Research & Development Analyst at AMDP Date: March 05, 2024 Subject: SheaMoisture Investment As a member of the Research and Development team, I was asked to find a potential investment recommendation that Anima Mundi Development Partners (AMDP) might want to consider. My first contender was SheaMoisture, a Black owned beauty company that prides itself on being socially responsible and environmentally stable. However, after an extensive amount of research, I have concluded that AMDP should not invest in SheaMoisture . To begin, I will define AMDP's basic fundamentals and detail why they are important to our core business. AMDP Standards Triple Bottom Line : A fundamental business concept that suggests that instead of a firm solely concentrating on their financial performance and profit generation, they should commit to measuring their social and environmental impact. The concept can be further broken down in the "Three ...
