Notes on initial Service Learning Proposal

Service Learning Proposal
As initially stated in my first proposal I was going to be volunteering with YWLP, however due to some scheduling conflicts I chose to do my service learning hours with Animal Safehouse.  Animal Safehouse is an organization that finds foster homes for pets of women who are victims of domestic violence. It was started by UCF Women’s Studies professor Leandra Preston and has been a very inspirational organization to volunteer for.
In the course of my volunteering with Animal Safehouse I tabled an event at Veg Fest, which was a vegetarian/organic festival held at Loch Haven Park. We raised money and awareness for Animal Safehouse as well as passed out information on being a foster home for a pet. I also organized my own tabling event and supply drive which I held at the Starbucks I work at in downtown Orlando. I passed out information on Animal Safehouse and raised some money for them at my tabling event and for the supply drive I made a poster and left out a box for people to bring in used/new pet supplies.
