On this episode of the Pawareness Podcast, we welcome Rachel Richter, leader of the We The Dogs NYC team, to talk about the 501c3 organization and how they use social media to stay connected with their supporters, publicize their events and ongoing efforts, and instill a sense of community among dog owners and animal lovers. She details some of the fun events that they organize and what she loves most about them, as well as how their events have changed since the onset of covid-19. Rachel touches on how her past career in influencer marketing has influenced her work with We The Dogs, the differences between the NYC and DC chapters, and a bit about the charities that We The Dogs works with. Want to know the future of We The Dogs? Curious about how you can get involved, even if you don’t live in NYC or DC? Tune in to learn more!
