(GLEN COVE, N.Y.) – Nassau County Legislature Minority Leader Delia DeRiggi-Whitton (D – Glen Cove) proudly supported “Paws for a Cause” – the Gold Award project of local Girl Scout Audrey Chen – at the Glen Cove Senior Center on Friday, July 19. There, as part of her advocacy, Chen made a presentation focused how adopting rescue dogs can enrich the lives of senior citizens.
“As I continue to share my home with my wonderful rescue dog Teddy, I am reminded every day how wonderful a privilege it is to adopt a pet and give them the loving forever home they deserve,” Minority Leader DeRiggi-Whitton said. “I’m so proud of Audrey for dedicating herself to the cause of pet adoption, and it was wonderful to meet her at the Glen Cove Senior Center and learn more about her Gold Award project.”
