Animals rescue centers and animal shelters are for the majority understaffed. Most centers rely on individuals who love animals and want to give their time to help them but some don’t have the resources such as professional photographers or photography training. It’s a fact that most animals get adopted if they are well-groomed and accompanied by a positive picture to encourage people to visit the shelter and see how cute they are first hand.
An initiative by GreaterGood.org and several partners was created to provide animal shelters and volunteers across the country with training and resources to successfully groom and photograph shelter pets. The initiative One Picture Saves a Life was started as a partnership between Seth Casteel, The Animal Rescue Site, WAHL Home Products, the Petfinder Foundation. professional groomer Jorge Bendersky, and of course GreaterGood.org.

With better pictures and better grooming, the animals get the second chance that they so rightly deserve. Please share this initiative with your family and friends.
