# ๐Ÿพ ONE LOVE FOUNDATION - FOSTER & HANG

# MEET YOUR MATCH

## What if your next adventure buddy is waiting for you at the shelter?

You know that feeling when you want a companion for the weekend?
Someone to go on walks with.
Someone to join you for coffee.
Someone to cuddle with on the couch.
Someone who's genuinely thrilled to see you when you walk through the door.

What if you could have all of that โ€” without committing to a dog forever?
That's the idea behind Foster & Hang. โค๏ธ
We're building a new community where people foster shelter dogs for a few weeks and get to experience what life with a dog can actually feel like.
And we're looking for our FIRST FOUNDING FOSTERS.

๐Ÿถ COME MEET YOUR POTENTIAL MATCH

We're heading to the upcoming Miami Dade Animal Shelter Foster Fair, and we're looking for 10โ€“15 people to join us.

๐Ÿซ Explore MDAS Foster Clubs
๐Ÿถ Learn about dog fostering
๐Ÿฑ Discover cat & kitten opportunities
๐Ÿพ Learn more about Pawventures
๐Ÿ  Explore in-house volunteer opportunities
โœจ And more!

You'll meet dogs who need temporary homes and have the opportunity to find one who fits your lifestyle.
Maybe you're already a dog person.
Maybe you've always wanted a dog but aren't ready for a permanent commitment.
Maybe you work from home and would love some company.
Maybe you've been wanting a reason to get outside more.
Or maybe...
you just want someone to cuddle with.
Fostering can give you the chance to experience all of that while giving a shelter dog something they desperately need:

### A home.

***

# โค๏ธ WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?

Let's be honest.
Fostering isn't just about what you give.
You get a lot back, too.

๐Ÿพ A companion to keep you company at home
๐ŸŒด An adventure buddy for walks, exploring, beach days and weekend outings
โ˜• A coffee date who is always happy to see you
๐Ÿ›‹๏ธ A cuddle buddy for movie nights and lazy Sundays
๐Ÿšถ A reason to get outside and move more
๐Ÿ“ธ A four-legged sidekick for your photos and adventures
๐Ÿค The experience of having a dog without immediately committing to 10+ years
๐Ÿ‘‹ A built-in community of other people who are fostering
And maybe the biggest one:

### You get to discover what life with THIS dog is actually like.

Because sometimes you think you want a dog...
And then you meet your dog.

***

# ๐Ÿก AND FOR THE DOG?

A shelter can keep a dog safe.
But a foster home lets a dog live.

They get:

๐ŸŒŽ Exposure to the real world
๐Ÿ›‹๏ธ A chance to relax outside the kennel
๐Ÿพ New experiences
โค๏ธ Human companionship
๐Ÿ“ธ More opportunities to be seen
๐Ÿก Valuable information about how they behave in a home

And every kennel you open up can potentially make room for another dog who needs help.

***

# ๐Ÿพ THIS IS WHERE FOSTER & HANG COMES IN

When you foster with us, you aren't doing it alone.
We're creating a community around the experience.

During your foster stay, you'll have opportunities to join other fosters for:

โ˜• Social hangouts with fellow dog lovers
๐ŸŒ… Sunset walks
๐ŸŒด Outdoor adventures
๐Ÿงบ Picnics
๐Ÿ“ธ Foster photo days

The dogs don't have to interact with each other. We'll structure outings around each dog's individual needs and prioritize safe, calm coexistence.
Your foster gets an adventure.
You get a companion.
And together, you become part of a community.

***

# ๐Ÿ’˜ AND YES... THERE'S A CHANCE YOU'LL FALL IN LOVE.

That's kind of the point.
You might foster for two weeks and help your dog find their forever home.
You might decide to keep fostering.
Or you might look at the dog sleeping next to you and realize:

### "Oh no. I think this is my dog."

โค๏ธ Foster fail.
We won't judge.

***

# ๐Ÿ• WE'RE LOOKING FOR OUR FIRST 10โ€“15 FOUNDING FOSTERS

You don't have to be an experienced foster.
You don't have to know if you're ready to adopt.
You just need to be able to provide a safe, loving temporary home for a shelter dog for a short period of time, subject to the shelter's requirements and the individual dog's needs.

Come meet the dogs.
Find your match.
Take them home.
Go on some adventures.
See what happens.

### You might change a dog's life.

### They might change yours.
