My Project

Animals have the known benefits of lowering stress and anxiety levels in humans. My sweet, cute funny guinea pigs, Double Stuff, Minnie Oreo, and their new friend Oreo continue to bring joy and happiness to our students and staff. To continue supporting the emotions of our students, please help support the ever-hungry piggies, with food, treats, bedding, and shampoo.

The Three Amigos are accessible to students in the counseling office where students can visit with them to receive the comfort, companionship, affection, and joy that guinea pigs provide.

I also bring the boys with me when I visit classrooms to teach school counseling lessons throughout the year. Please help support our Piggie Therapy Program. The Three Amigos, our staff, students, and I greatly appreciate your support.
