Wednesday and Thursday at Animal Care Expo were full of learning, winning and… dating?
That’s right; this year’s Maddie’s Fund session brought together 25 experts who had three-minute “speed dates” with attendees in groups of three and four, sharing tips and ideas for overcoming obstacles to lifesaving, and learning from each other.
Our team also gave mini-presentations on our education and grant programs in the exhibit hall.
You can learn more about our Apprenticeships, Internships and MaddieTalks, as well as our Innovation Grants, in the short recordings below:
Want more? We kept on helping people “Spin and Win” for the chance at prizes and grants for up to $1,000 for their organizations, and sharing information about our feline communication course and the Maddie’s Pet Assistant app.
