Raychel plans fundraising events throughout the year and coordinates the items needed for the events. Although we haven’t converted Raychel into a bunny owner she loves animals and has 2 kitties at home. She has a weak spot in her heart for large white bunnies and someday I’m sure we’ll see her hopping in home with one.
