Hey, lovely listeners!

Get ready for an enlightening chat with Kathy Powelson on this episode of the Just Be Cause Podcast. We're delving into the inspiring journey of Pause for Hope, an innovative animal organization that began by providing free veterinary care for pets of unhoused folks, and has since evolved to offer crucial support for both animals and their human companions.

Throughout the conversation, we'll explore the deep bond between human and animal well-being, using real-life examples from Kathy's work. From the heartwarming story of assisting a woman fleeing domestic violence by finding foster care for her pets to the impactful programs that connect foster children with animals in need, we'll uncover the profound connections between social services and animal welfare.

Join us as we navigate the complexities of supporting families in crisis, the challenges faced by low-income pet owners, and the vital role of philanthropy in creating a more compassionate world for both humans and our furry friends.

Get ready for a thought-provoking and uplifting episode!
