In the hub of a city, sandwiched between skyscrapers and high-rises was a tiny but vibrant animal shelter by the name of “Paws Home”. Serving as a nice haven for numerous homeless animals, it offered food, shelter and care.
One day, young Jack and Grace walked by the shelter and noticed a sign for a voluntary service.
Jack was absorbed immediately, “Grace, just take into consideration those sad animals in urgent need of help. Let’s join to be volunteers.”
Grace, however, showed somewhat uncertainty, “I am not sure, Jack, voluntary service takes hard work, and we have school to go to and something else to do.”
Jack insisted, “just think about what a meaningful difference we would make to the homeless animals. Don’t hesitate! Do it now!” Eventually, Grace nodded.
Both Jack and Grace ran to the animal shelter and sprang into action. Sweeping the shelter, feeding the animals and having games with them were great fun for them. With days passing, they became attached to the lovely creatures and felt a sense of pride.
On one Sunday afternoon full of sunshine, when making nice meals for the lovely, Jack happened to hear a conversation, leaving him worried. The shelter’s director, Mr. Frank, was telling a worker a financial crisis Paws Home was faced with. As donations were declining and running costs were rising, the shelter was on the verge(边缘)of being closed. “The shelter will stop in the near future”, sighed Mr. Frank.
Jack told Grace the news promptly. Surely, both of them felt how urgent it was to find a way out. “We can’t wait doing nothing,” Grace said, resolve shining in her eyes, “we have to take action again.”
They immediately put forward a good plan: stage a community fundraising called “An Evening for Paws”— animals talent show, bake sale and auction(拍卖) on the square.
The weeks that followed saw how busy they were. Jack persuaded some local shops to donate pet supplies, baked goods, and art works for the auction. At the same time, Grace promoted the event online, attracting attention fast. She designed posters which would appear in the neighborhood .
