Olin Corporation partners with Second chance

Olin has a long tradition of encouraging its employees to volunteer. Second Chance Animal Alliance’s new relationship with Olin Corporation – Winchester Division gives employees the chance to use “volunteer time off” to serve with SCAA.

Along with dedicated volunteer support for our adoption and foster events, the Olin – SCAA partnership also found another happy benefit.

Olin employee Alex Foster, after volunteering with Second Chance, did just that – Alex decided to give resident shelter dog Fabio a second chance. Fabio has been in the shelter for x days, and was deemed by workers as a dog “who did not like other dogs.” Alex took Fabio home as a foster, introducing him to his other two dogs. Fabio came alive, and got along with Alex’s other dogs. Placing Fabio in a safe and comforting environment allowed Fabio to come out of his shell and accept love from humans and other dogs.

A week later, Alex adopted Fabio.

Thank you to the combined efforts of Kaela King of Olin and our volunteer extraordinaire, Liz Dixon in creating this partnership, and happy tails to Alex and Fabio!
