Advocacy

Commitment to any cause is like a show of how passionate someone can be about that cause and what he or she may be willing to do to get a job done. Fox Lake Farms is just an example of how people who are committed to helping people, can come together. Shoveling poop, moving dirt, and grooming horses each day are just some of the jobs. Helping children and looking after animals that have been abused, such as dogs or cats, also makes up some of the jobs they have committed themselves to do. Even though to me some of the tasks were boring and seemed to have no point, I know that the owners of the farm know what is best for the farm and its animals, since they do the work each day. After just a couple hours of volunteering, my body was already aching. The thought of a finding these fairly easy jobs tiring saddens me. The idea of the owners doing these somewhat jobs each day for hours on end each day just to keep the farm running and in good shape, shows me how true commitment to a cause should be like.
