The Compassionate Community

The Compassionate Community We are an organization based in Utica, NY that collects donations for various local animal and homel Hello! I'm Kelsey and I am 18 years old!

I began volunteering in high school. It started with our local humane society, which I continue to volunteer for today. I then found an organization that would give me scholarships for volunteering - but I soon forgot about the scholarships and became extremely passionate for volunteering. I ran a 'Teens for Jeans' program, which collected jeans for local homeless youth. I collected over 200 pairs

in a few months. I have to thank Facebook, because that is how I made most of my connections with people who donated. Today I collect donations for a variety of local organizations (I am based in Utica, NY) - many for the homeless, veterans, youth, and in need families who request my help. I will also be traveling to Thailand in June of 2015 to volunteer with elephants, tigers, dogs, cats, and children. I am a one-man team right now (anyone up for some volunteering?) and also am studying for my psychology degree online. My biggest goal is to get communities to become compassionate about helping their fellow man.

I was at the Destination Create Festival this weekend and wanted everyone to be able to reach my personal business, as well.
If you were there and grabbed a card I explained that my non-profit was on the front and my personal on the back!
Here is a link to my personal where you can order the other items- CompassionKrafts!
Any questions, just ask!

Thanks, everyone for you patience with me. I am very busy and overwhelmed (not particularly in a bad way!) - and have had ZERO time for anything!

After hearing the heartbreaking news from my hometown, I would just like to remind everyone to appreciate the time you have with someone. Hold your friends and family a bit closer tonight.
You were a greatly influence. Rest easy.

ABSOLUTELY pathetic that grown adults would argue about what is and isn't animal abuse. While I tried express an opinion you attack me and then say I'm harassing, a fool, immature, and ignorant. Believe it or not, I have done some research and I am not the only one who believes your "practices" are abuse.
Incredible how someone can be a breeder and claim to love animals but be okay with subjecting them to painful mutilations.
Oh and if you think you're the only person who has an opinion - you're ignorant.
Also - my opinion isn't "wrong". It doesn't work like that.
I have an opinion about it..you have an opinion about it - let's act like adults. (And I don't care that you got me removed from the page - it was full of sad breeders like you)
