Jenny
My name is Jenny, and I’m a junior at Marquette. I have a stuffed animal pig named Patty, and I used to have some fish (sadly they’re not around anymore); however, I have always wanted a Golden Doodle! I’m really looking forward to making dog bandanas and getting to volunteer with different animals. I joined CARE because I think it’s a great way to learn help our animal community!
Sri
Hello, my name is Sri Varatharaj! I am a sophomore and co-head of CARE at Marquette high school. Animals have played a huge role in my life as I’ve always grown up with them. I’ve had a bunny, bird, fish, and I currently have a small white Maltese named Angel. Animal rights is something I’ve been passionate about for so long and I’m so thankful to have the opportunity to give back to the animals that play such a huge role in our daily lives. I believe this club is an amazing way to get students involved in our animal community and I can’t wait to get more individuals interested in giving back!
