Helen Savkovic is the Office Administrator for the Richmond Animal Protection Society (RAPS). The organization recently succeeded in achieving a ban in the sales of rabbits from pet stores in Richmond.

RAPS is currently working on a ban in the sales of all pets in Richmond. Please visit the shelter to sign a petition.
