Jessica Williamson – Normanview Residents Group- Jessica has been volunteering with the non-profit charity Bright Eyes Dog Rescue for 3 years by fostering, volunteering with events, as well as being a director. Through the pandemic, she fostered many dogs, including moms and their litters of puppies. Jessica went on a rescue mission to one of their partnering communities to work with the members to help remove unwanted, injured, and stray dogs/puppies. She then helped them get into foster homes and find their forever homes! Just recently, she was a ‘mid-woof’ with her 107th foster dog as she delivered 12 tiny babies. Through all this fostering, Jessica helped hundreds of dogs get into their loving forever homes from otherwise terrible living conditions. Jessica loves being involved in the community and helps in any way she can!
