As part of our annual Clear the Shelters campaign, NBC Bay Area and Telemundo 48 are honoring individuals, groups and nonprofits going above and beyond for animals in need through the Pawsitively Good Awards.
Congratulations to Maria Lopez, an Animal Care Technician at Compassion Without Borders, for her love for animals and her commitment to helping dogs find their forever family, “no matter what condition they come in," she says.
I don’t feel like it’s a job, it’s just something I love and I always have loved.
