I’m excited to share that I’ve joined Furkids Animal Rescue & Shelters as an official volunteer! 🐾 Furkids is Georgia’s largest no-kill animal shelter, dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming cats and dogs in need. In 2024 alone, they have saved and found homes for over 3,500 animals. Their mission to provide every animal with a happy, healthy life truly resonates with me. If you’re passionate about animal welfare, I highly recommend checking out Furkids.org to learn how you can get involved.

Warning: MAYZO employees were exposed to extreme levels of cuteness at Furkids Animal Rescue & Shelters. Dog walks, cat snuggles, and lots of happy hearts. Community giving never looked so adorable! Thank you to Donna Howard, Mya Mickey, Gaynor Elizabeth Morgan, MBA , Vincci Wong, and Alicia Grizzle for your time and energy! Please help share as these furry friends would love to find their forever home.

My coworker* had a huge problem. Every Zoom meeting. Every status update. Every "circle back" and "let's put a pin in that." She was dying inside. But she had to keep smiling. Then she made one decision that changed everything... She started fostering Meadow. Now when someone suggests "fruitionizing" for the third time? Meadow's there. Silently. Perfectly communicating what we're all thinking. The side-eye. The heavy sigh. The "my soul is leaving my body" stare. Meadow does it all. And somehow, my coworker's meetings are actually bearable now. Her blood pressure is down. She's thriving. Because Meadow takes the heat. The lesson? Sometimes the best professional development investment isn't another certification. It's a four-legged emotional support colleague who'll judge everyone on your behalf. Meadow is available for adoption through Furkids Animal Rescue & Shelters Your meetings, and your life, will never be the same. *I am the coworker.
