D2Care
So I found out last week that I’d been elected to the Board of Directors of D2Care (www.d2care.org). This organization is the not-for-profit organization that works for deaf dogs through education and advocacy. Since I’ve been a deaf dog mom for over 10 years now, this organization is near and dear to my heart, and I’ve been involved, in one way or another, since its inception.
This morning I found out I’ve been elected to be the organization’s Treasurer. I’m pretty excited, but at the same time, a little nervous about doing a good job. First order of business is moving the bank account. Then I have to get acquainted with all the books and how the organization works. Thankfully, the outgoing Treasurer is a good friend of mine and will help me get organized and all set up.
It’s such a joy to be involved in an organization that respects you and what you can bring to the table, as well as respecting your desire to learn. I’m so looking forward to the next two years and serving this great organization.
I became a deaf dog mom 11 years ago when I adopted my little boy, Orion. Nina, my little girl, followed soon after. They are the loves of my life and my Significant Other gave me a gift certificate for my birthday a couple years ago so I could get my furkids’ portraits tattooed on my leg. Scotty did a wonderful job and I get lots of compliments on it. It’s all in greys and black-and-whites with the only color being their eyes. It’s on of my tats I love the most, not only because of who gave me the gift, but also because my kids are with me all the time.
