Nydia began her time with PAWS 5½ years ago helping out at our Petsmart location in Northeast Philadelphia. Since then, she has become an asset to our volunteer program. “It’s a joy spending time with the animals and thrilling to see them heading to their new homes.”

As a volunteer, Nydia took on the role as site leader for our off-site adoption center, volunteered at adoption events, volunteers to do cat care at our Northeast Adoption Center, and assists with administrative working including processing applications. ​ Overall, just enjoy helping out wherever I can and working with such a fine group of people. ​ When asked what she likes most about volunteering, she said, “Overall, just enjoy helping out wherever I can and working with such a fine group of people.”

We are very lucky to have Nydia and hopes she stays a member of the PAWS family for many more years!
