I can't believe they pay me for this!
One day I was a writer, the next day I was the editor of the nation's No. 1 community journalism project--The Northwest Voice and The Southwest Voice newspapers. Writing has always been my passion, and I had contributed upwards of 60 submissions before I became editor. Now, I'm basking in my good fortune and loving every minute of creating what I believe are masterpieces of unpracticed, non-professional, straight-from-the-heart journalism.

As you may be aware, there is a dog & cat over-population crisis in Kern County. There's never a better time to teach children about how to respect and care for animals than when children are young!

To help, The Northwest Voice is partnering with NOR, San Joaquin Veterinary Hospital, and ALPHA Canine Shelter and KGFM 101.5 radio to raise funds and awareness in our first ever Pet — Donation and Adoption Awareness Drive:

 

Please join us on August 16 (in the morning, before it's too hot!), and bring anything from this list:

  • Blankets, sheets, towels (for the shelters)
  • Dog/cat toys
  • Dry dog and cat food
  • Paper towels
  • Aluminum cans (for recycling!)
  • Money!

 There will be a live remote by KGFM 101.5's Rachel Legan, veterinary advice on hand for questions, members of the SPCA, and adoptable dogs on site. Please bring your coffee and take your dog for a walk -- for a good cause!

There will also be drawings for FREE spay and neuter vouchers!
