Corey Wise,
Volunteer Puppy Raiser & DBL Young Professional Board Member
- Volunteering allows me to connect to my community and make it a better place.
- Volunteering is a two-way street: It can benefit you and your family as much as the cause you choose to help.
- Dedicating my time as a volunteer allows me to make new friends, expand my network, and boost my social skills.
- Ultimately, connecting with the unique personalities of the DBL dogs, as well as the pure joy I receive in seeing other people interact with these dogs, provides me with an unparalleled sense of fulfillment and a deep sense of purpose and meaning in knowing I’m making a real difference.
