A Note From Our President

 Welcome to the Paws For Friendship Incorporated official website!

Time to Live…………
     Life grants us the opportunity to write our own destiny. Our fate is not a matter of chance; it is how we decide to spend our lives. Let us choose to give our lives to something that will outlast us.
     In my office at Headquarters is this beautiful, framed print titled ‘Time to Live’. The picture is one of a gorgeous mountain scene where your thoughts can just rest and seem to wash away without a worry in the world. The mountains hold peace and contentment to me, many incredible vacations throughout the years, memories that are lasting a lifetime.
   The simple phrase ‘time to live’ says it all. I admire this phrase and find it to be true for me. To all of our Members who unconditionally share their precious angels this is also true. They define the word Volunteer in its truest sense. To say I am grateful to know them can’t even scratch the surface of how grateful I am. Please know, I am, more than words can ever convey.
    Being a Volunteer is the most wonderful way of spending your life. Teamed with a loving, caring and faithful four-legged friend the lives you have touched have forever been changed.
  To everyone who has faithfully followed us throughout these 29 years, thank you. To my dear friends who have never questioned my path of travel, thank you. Many may have not understood why I chose the path I did but you are still there, and I thank you. My life is full of many blessings, and I count you as one of them. I will forever thank you and be grateful. Some people try to turn back their ‘odometers’, not me, I want everyone to know I’ve travelled a long way and many of the roads weren’t paved. Happy New Year everyone and every blessing in the New Year to you!

Jan Schmidt
President
