Ever since she was 5 years old, Ariana has dreamed of becoming a veterinarian. While most kids were playing with stuffed animals, she was learning how to care for real ones reading books about animal anatomy, asking endless questions at every vet visit, and watching every wildlife and veterinary show she could find.
Now finishing middle school, and heading into high school Ariana is more dedicated than ever. For the past two summers, she’s volunteered alongside a licensed veterinarian, gaining hands-on experience with animals big and small from cuddly cats and dogs to massive cows and horses. Whether it’s helping with checkups, cleaning stalls, or just comforting animals in need, Ariana shows up with heart, curiosity, and grit.
Her hard work has paid off, Ariana was recently selected to attend the WorldStrides Veterinary Medicine Program (summer 2025), a prestigious summer training for middle school students passionate about animal care. This program will not only provide her with advanced training, but also award her continuing education credits that are essential for future acceptance into veterinary school.
We’re incredibly proud of Ariana and her unwavering dedication. This raffle is part of our effort to support her journey and help cover the costs of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Every ticket sold brings her one step closer to achieving her dream of becoming a veterinarian and making a real difference in the lives of animals.
🐾 Thank you for supporting Ariana and helping her follow her passion—one pawprint at a time!
