One of the most important goals of
Spring Farm CARES is education. Besides the many
individual and group tours of the farm itself, and of
the nature sanctuary, we also do a number of public
speaking engagements to bring a piece of the farm out to
the public. Societal change is not something we
can do alone. We know the world literally changes
one heart at a time, but we also know that we need to
network and reach out to those many hearts seeking the
same goals.
Over the years, we have watched
as animal care and welfare organizations, all who are
trying to do the same work, to affect the same outcome,
were competing and squabbling with one another.
This seemed like such a waste of valuable energy to us.
After all, we have our differences, but we also have so
much that we share in common. We sought to find
that common ground with a hope that we could reach out,
join hands, give up old battles, heal old wounds, and
move forward united. Our Network Partners for
Animals Program was born. |
