Paws For Affect

Put a stop to animal homelessness

About
Paws For Affect was founded by a local Webster Groves student who has a passion for helping shelter animals.

Margot believes that all ages can make a difference. While she understands why they are in place, Margot was often frustrated by the ages limits that shelters have on volunteers, and she left her volunteer sessions feeling like she wasn't doing enough.

Her mom encouraged her to think about how she can make her footprint bigger, by involving other members of her community, and that's how Paws for Affect was born.

Every month, Margot will organize a community pick-up of items that shelters are always in need of. All you have to do is collect the items from your house, and leave them in a box on your doorstep.
  
How We Make An Impact
Your impact is always greater when you involve others. Our hope is to turn one kid's donation into an entire community's donation.  

When kids are able to make a difference, it makes them feel more confident in themselves and encourages them to think creatively about how to make the world a better place.

Margot wants to inspire other kids to start there own projects to help save the world. Earth has many imperfections and it's our job to help fix them together. Whether it's helping people in poverty, helping to have less litter or helping the animals in the shelters. Every step makes a difference in changing the world.
