SENIOR COALITION VISITS KEARNEY AREA ANIMAL SHELTER

Our senior coalition recently had the chance to visit the Kearney Area Animal Shelter, and it was such a great experience! Facility Director Braden Wilkes took us on a behind-the-scenes look at how the shelter operates and learned about the incredible work their team does to care for animals in need.

During our tour, we saw firsthand how much love and effort goes into making sure each animal is well cared for while they wait for their forever homes. From medical care to daily attention, the staff and volunteers truly go above and beyond.

It was eye-opening to see how important community support is for shelters like this. Whether it’s through volunteering, donating, or adopting, there are so many ways to help. Our visit left us feeling inspired and grateful for the work being done to give these animals a second chance.
