58 stories: What’s yours?
Across California’s 58 counties, people like you are coming together to make a real difference. We need decision-makers, communities, funders, and friends to hear firsthand what’s possible when we invest in programs that support pets and people. Help us collect and celebrate 58 stories that showcase this incredible work.
Let’s bring The California Story to life—together.
Invite your teams, volunteers, and board to submit via computer or smartphone in a few easy clicks using this link: https://sheltermedicine.memfox.io/allthedifference. Share a sweet story before Expo, and we’ll share something sweet with you! With every story submission, you’ll be entered in a drawing to win sweet treats for your organization.
Pass the mic to your community
Bring your mission to life with powerful stories collected directly from your community. More stories equal more contest entries, so pass the mic to your clients, adopters, foster parents, and colony caretakers with this link: https://sheltermedicine.memfox.io/californiastory. Community members more comfortable speaking in Spanish can go to
https://sheltermedicine.memfox.io/cuentosdecalifornia. You’ll be able to use every submission in your own communication channels—it’s also your chance to try MemoryFox, a tool that helps nonprofits amplify community voices ethically and authentically.
And if you’re a community member, your story makes a difference: This is your invitation to make your voice heard in support of people and pets in your county and community!
