| The idea for a campaign for CARMA, which stands for “Cat Rescue Maritimes,” started when my friend, Kiley Mercer, and I had to do academic and personal goals for French class. For our personal goal, we wanted to raise money for a good cause, but we weren’t sure yet what we wanted to fundraise for. After talking together about some different causes, we decided that we wanted to fundraise for animals. After discussing with our French teacher, Jeanne LeBlanc, who then talked with our community schools coordinator, Bridget Ryan, we decided to fundraise for CARMA, which is a local cat rescue that has chapters throughout the Maritimes.
CARMA uses a process called TNR; Trap, Neuter, and Return, to reduce the amount of feral cats. After they are humanely caught, then spayed or neutered, feral cats are returned to where they were found to live out their lives in a controlled environment with food, water and shelter provided for them. Since feral cats, which are cats that were born into the wild or who have not had interaction with humans for a very long time, cannot be adopted because of their wariness towards humans, this process allows them to enjoy the rest of their lives without adding to the population of feral cats. Stray cats who are able to be rehomed are fostered until they are adopted. CARMA is ran by five volunteers; Angel Richards, Dianne Hornbrook, Janet Diebal, Robin Dunfield, and Terri Peck, as well as many foster families who care for the cats.
With help from the Student Leadership Team, we raised $1000. That money was earned from a spirit day at our school, grocery packing at Sobey’s, and $1 raffle tickets that we sold on a painting painted by grade 8 student leader Kaedy Baird. On April 29th, we presented the cheque to two of the five volunteers from CARMA, Angel and Terri, after they did a presentation for our leadership team about the organization. Throughout this campaign, Kiley, myself, and the leadership team learned a lot about feral and stray cats, as well as how fast the population of cats can grow if you don’t spay or neuter your pet!
