Do Southwestern Academy students help at animal shelters?

Absolutely—and the animals are probably writing thank-you notes with their paws. Southwestern Academy students regularly volunteer at the Pasadena Humane Society, where they help make life a little more comfortable for our furry friends. They’ve even been known to sew tiny pillows for shelter animals. Yes, pillows. For animals. It’s like a spa day, but with more fur. These students take pet pampering seriously, whether it’s cleaning, crafting, or just giving a lonely pup some company. It’s not only adorable, it teaches empathy, patience, and maybe a little bit of lint-rolling technique too. So if you’re an animal lover, you’ll find your people—and your paws—at Southwestern.
