Its never too early to teach your child about the importance of giving back and helping those less fortunate. However in the case of the Porter family, it seems that no one had to teach their daughter this lesson at all.
You see, daughter Carly decided that instead of her friends bringing presents for her to her 9th birthday party at Claytor Lake, she wanted presents to take to all the homeless animals here at the Pulaski County Animal Shelter and Humane Education Center. As if this wasn't selfless enough, it turns out this is the SECOND time Carly has opted for presents for her furry friends instead of for herself. So WAY TO GO, Carly! It was easy to tell by all of the ear-to-ear grins (both feline and canine) that all the presents really raised the spirits of all of the homeless shelter animals.
Thank you Carly, for being one of the youngest Pulaski County role models and for thinking of others on your special day! (Carly pictured far left, her brother and friend at right)

Thank you Carly for having such a generous and loving approach to your birthday. Happy Birthday to you and many, many more. I'm sitting here trying to imagine the wonderful grownup person you're going to be in a few years and the example that you will set for so many, many others.You're TERRIFIC! I can't wait to hear about your next birthday. Please keep us all posted here at the Pulaski County Humane Society.
