DESCRIPTION:Pigeon First Aid & Companion Animal Care\n\nSunday, February 8th | 
 11am–2pm\n\nMeet at the Powell Street BART Station, San Francisco\nEver 
 wanted to be a hero to pigeons and their animal neighbors—all in one 
 afternoon? Join us for a hands-on day of compassion, learning, and real 
 impact in the heart of SF.\n\nSan Francisco’s pigeons often suffer from 
 painful injuries caused by string, hair, and other debris tightly wrapped 
 around their toes. These tiny hazards can lead to serious infections and 
 even amputations. Together, we’ll gently rescue injured pigeons, remove 
 the harmful materials, provide basic first aid, and release them safely 
 back to their flocks.\n\nWhile we’re out on the streets, we’ll also be 
 sharing food and toys for companion animals belonging to our unhoused 
 neighbors—because care and kindness should extend to all animals, big and 
 small.\n\nNo experience necessary! We’ll provide all the training and 
 supplies you’ll need. Just bring:\n\nCompassion\nComfortable shoes\nA 
 willingness to help animals who are often overlooked\n\nARRIVE ON TIME! 
 We’ll begin promptly at 11am with a brief about essential safety and 
 training. If you arrive late, we will be out and about and hard to contact 
 and find so please be on time.\n\nMeeting location: Powell Street BART 
 Station\n**Questions? Contact Carla at carla@dxe.io**\n\nLearn more about

 safer place for pigeons and companion animals alike.\n\n---\nDirect Action
