Helping Pets

Arrowhead Elementary School fourth grader Nolan Adelsky is putting his love for animals into action this March as he works to coordinate a schoolwide drive for the Town of Brookhaven Animal Shelter. With the help of his peers and teachers, Nolan has been collecting a variety of items for the shelter, including blankets, dog and cat food, towels, sheets, and toys.

“I really liked the idea of helping out animals in our community…animals that are living in a shelter and in need of some love,” stated Nolan, who hopes to pursue a career in the field of animal care when he grows up. “I really appreciate the donations that have been brought in and know they will go towards a good cause.”

Nolan coordinated the drive throughout the month of March not only with the desire to help his furry friends, but also in the pursuit of a Presidential Community Service Award.
