Students partner with a local pet shelter to help connect more animals with forever homes. They design and distribute a survey exploring why people adopt pets, what qualities they look for, and practical factors such as living space, local breed restrictions, and access to exercise areas. Students then analyze and present their findings to help the shelter increase adoptions and tailor its community outreach.
