Compassion in Action Winner 2006
Linda Guthrie
Animal Rescue of Fresno - ARF
The "Compassion In Action" Award is given annually by the Coalition to an individual who has demonstrated commitment to helping animals and whose life embodies the award title, "Compassion In Action". The selection committee is comprised of past award recipients.
You can nominate a deserving individual for this award by sending a written description of the nominee's work along with your contact information to Central Valley Coalition for Animals, 619 Woodworth Avenue, Clovis, CA 93613 or to SAS4Dogs@aol.com Jim Howell's work for the animals is well known to animal shelters and rescue groups. For many years, Jim has transported animals from San Diego to northern California to help them get from the shelters to new forever homes. Although a board member and dedicated volunteer for the Greyhound Adoption Center, Jim's work has never been breed (or even species) discriminatory. He is an invaluable partner to those whose life work is to help the animals.
Jim and his lovely wife, Lindsay, are regulars at the local shelters. They help to socialize animals, foster them, transport them and help to network rescuers around the country. Jim is also a Coalition Advisory Board member and Team Leader on the Super Adoption Committee.
What would we (and our furry friends) do without you, Jim?
