"GIVE TO PET OWNERS AND THEIR FURRY FRIENDS IN SOUTH LOS ANGELES (GBU112)"

03/24/2018 (09:00AM - 09:30AM) (Saturday) : Actress and blogger Jamie Chung goes to South Los Angeles to visit two organizations dedicated to the well being of our furry friends and their human families. Using the story that she's there doing research for her blog, Jamie begins her day with a visit to the Amanda Foundation, which rescues animals from shelters and provides free and low-cost medical care for pets in some of LA County's poorest communities. Inspired by the young volunteers she meets at Amanda Foundation - middle-schoolers who want to take care of animals and their neighborhoods as veterinarians one day - Jamie is determined to help. But first she pays a visit to Downtown Dog Rescue, an organization that helps homeless and low-income pet-owners keep and care for their four-legged loved ones with free medical and legal services, and an emergency kennel. At Downtown Dog Rescue, Jamie has an emotional encounter with a group of homeless pet-owners and their dogs. Seeing that both organizations are worthy of all the support she can give them, she divides a generous gift from the ASPCA between them.
