One Picture Saves a Life is Heading to St. Hubert’s

One Picture Saves a Life is finally here! A collaboration between Seth Casteel (Underwater Dogs), The Animal Rescue Site, GreaterGood.org, John Paul Pet, and the Petfinder Foundation, our mission is to provide shelter staff and volunteers with the resources to successfully groom, photograph and market shelter pets, giving them the second chance they deserve.

One of the ways we are accomplishing this mission is by going on location to six animal shelters in 2013 to teach hands-on workshops. Seth Casteel and a John Paul Pet groomer will be teaching two workshops — one to the public about saving lives by volunteering at their local shelter, and one to regional shelter staff about best practices for grooming, photographing, and marketing their shelter pets to potential adopters.

The first of these stops in only two weeks away in Madison, NJ at St. Hubert’s Animal Center. Kim Saunders, VP of Operations and Communications for St. Hubert’s, is thrilled to host the event. She says, “This is an incredible opportunity for us to engage our community and learn about this important element in the adoption process. Bringing in regional shelters and rescues will magnify the impact, and ultimately mean more lives saved.”

Stay tuned for photos, videos, and stories from the event. We will be documenting the workshop live via Instagram with the hashtag #onepicturesaves.
