Palo Alto Online
For over a year, Palo Alto High School rising senior Jai Wadhwani has been photographing local pets, creating a business from the moody and playful shoots. While he’s had a knack for photography since he was a child, his business was not for personal gain, but for his four-legged friends. On July 1st at 2 p.m., Wadhwani will present a large $8,000 check – the money he’s raised for local animal shelters Pets In Need and Sunrise Horse Rescue through his thriving business. When Wadhwani visited a few local animal shelters in 2021, looking for his first pet dog, he immediately noticed the orphaned pets’ poor living conditions, according to a Weekly article. It was then that he decided he wanted to raise money for pet rescue and animal welfare in the area. The big check reveal will be hosted at Pets In Need at 3281 E Bayshore Rd., Palo Alto, CA.
