Rescue U- By Project Save 2 Lives

Rescue U

Rescue U is a program for young children that exposes them to the option of animal adoption to get a pet.  In raising awareness about adoption, the goal of the program is to change future behavior, encourage animal adoption and retention, and reduce the population of pets in shelters.  

This program also focuses on responsible pet ownership and knowing when not to adopt a companion animal.  When it isn’t the right time to adopt an animal, young children learn that they can help in other ways, such as telling others about adoption options and donating to shelters and rescue organizations. 

Rescue U has three associated activities that can be combined to create an experience unique to your specific classroom.  These three activities are the Guest Reader program, Animal Adoption Activity, and Leadership Project.
