Kirstian Warkins

Residing in Louisville, CO, Kirstian Warkins actively serves on the Board of Directors for Paws for Patrick and played an integral role in establishing our ESA Program. As Fronzie’s sister and Patrick’s Godmother, her commitment to our cause runs deep. Kirstian witnesses firsthand the tangible difference her efforts make in the lives of the individuals we assist. She shares, “It’s so nice we can honor Patrick in this way, and especially with animals – they always made him so happy.”

Kirstian is Mom to her own three kids, Valerie, Joseph, and Tommy. “I think animals are great for kids because the kids are responsible for caring for the animals, which in turn makes them care more about themselves as caregivers. Some of the young adults who come to us for help may not be ready for the responsibility, but we will always be here. It’s that unconditional love you get with a pet . . . the therapeutic benefits of that love are just undeniable.”
