Great idea. I don't know if you can do it there, but here in Oregon, they often allow kids/families to come in just to play with and brush the animals. Good for the animals and the kids.
What a wonderful opportunity for an animal lover who also wants to get some administrative experience...
That's a great opportunity and for a good cause too!
