Volunteer of the month

Lara has been a volunteer at WWCC for close to two years now, and we truly are the better for it. Besides being an incredibly knowledgeable, amicable, and kind person, Lara did something truly special this July. Remember the Green Cheek fundraiser we had at the beginning of this month? We had lots of fun, lots of beer, and lots of connection with the community. Lara is the one who put the whole event together! Thank you so so so much, Lara!

Lara grew up in Australia, where she developed true love and respect for wildlife. She now lives here in Huntington Beach and works as an RVT at a small animal hospital! Even as someone with such a rich background in animal medicine (our words; Lara is too humble to say such a thing!), she still finds joy in learning about the very unique species she comes into contact with here at WWCC. Lara couldn't pick just one favorite animal, but says pelicans and baby opos hold a special place in her heart.

Thank you, Lara, for everything you do! We wouldn't be us without you :)
