By teaching empathy, responsibility, and cooperation, the Mutt-i-grees Curriculum empowers students of all ages to move beyond the classroom and into their communities. Mutt-i-grees students across the country work with local animal shelters and public officials to save the lives of homeless pets and educate their peers, families, and community leaders about the importance of adoption, spay/neuter, licensing, and other pet-related issues, that affect towns and cities. Many schools have implemented M.U.T.T.S Clubs (Motivated Understanding, Thoughtful Teenage Students). These are extracurricular clubs or volunteer groups that aid local animal shelters, conduct service-learning internships, work with town and city governments, and much more. M.U.T.T.S Clubs are perfect afterschool programs or to be otherwise implemented as part of community service. M.U.T.T.S Clubs conduct food drives for shelters, take pets to assisted-living facilities to comfort and cheer residents, and their members volunteer at animal shelters to walk, socialize, read to pets, and encourage adoption.
