Creatures And Kids, Inc. – Living the Dream With Therapeutic Animals
A life-long vision is finally coming true for Penny Nichols. Nichols and her father always believed, with the right approach, they could make a difference in the lives of children. Although her father has passed away, the vision has become a reality through the efforts of Nichols and many other hard working volunteers. “I thank all of these people for their time and energy to create Creatures and Kids, Inc.,” said Nichols
Creatures and Kids, Inc, a non-profit organization, and was developed by people with a variety of backgrounds and professions. They share the common belief that it is possible to re-direct young people toward positive character qualities through controlled interactions with animals.
While Creatures and Kids’ main focus is youth, they find themselves working with all ages. “Our future- plan includes continuing our volunteering with schools, medical facilities, libraries and those that can benefit from a smile,” said Nichols.
Creatures and Kids – sums it up this way;
No. Therapeutic animals don’t guide the blind or return a dropped object to someone in a wheelchair. They don’t perform at the circus. Their gift is to guide a mind to learn, turn a frown into a smile, and perform a miracle right before your eyes.
