It's the bottom of the 9th in the World Series. Two outs. Bases are loaded. Each player's adrenaline is rushing on each team. Fans are standing on their tip toes biting their nails. Anxiety has taken over everyone. The team has worked so hard for this day to finally come. They can't wait any longer for the results. That's exactly how the Friendship APL is feeling right now. They are in their final stretch rounding third and sliding into home. We are praying that their hard work and dedication will pay off as they cross the home plate.
I've never seen a volunteer organization work so hard to come together to represent one common goal, the ANIMALS. Many hours of hard work, stress and emotions have gone into zootoo for this shelter. The loss of losing one of their members a few months ago, the lack of money and the unknown of how much longer this shelter will be able to survive. It's not just about a contest this shelter has seeked out to win. The friendship APL has a passion. A passion to help represent their furry friends that have no voice. A passion to provide a safe place for the animals. Times are tough, the economy is dwindling. People are losing their jobs, their homes and even their animals because they do not have the extra money to provide for them. This makeover is more than a contest. This makeover gives the Friendship APL HOPE. A hope to provide a yard for the animals to run and play in. A hope to keep them safe. A hope that one day they will get adopted. This makeover will not only makeover the shelter but the organization. It will give everyone the hope and belief they can achieve anything they believe in. After Tuesday and the results are in to find out which shelters make it to the top 10, I believe the Friendship APL will come back either way as a winner. They should be proud of what they have accomplished with such limited funding and be proud for the change they have made already. Win or lose, I am proud to be a member of the friendship APL and a member of it's community. All of our furry friends are throwing their paws up in the air and "woofing" for the Friendship APL. Now let's represent OHIO for what it's known for..helping others,especially the animals!! Good Luck Friendship APL! Read less
