  • 7 people are interested

If you have ever lost a pet I am sure you remember how horrible it is. San Francisco Aid for Animals receives donations from friends, family and veterinary hospitals after a pet has died to honor that beloved pet. As an acknowledgment of the pain and donation, we send sympathy cards to the owners. We need help writing these condolence cards on a weekly basis. The volunteer must be compassionate, dependable, trustworthy and ideally in the San Francisco area.
