That's what Samantha Wilson, a social entrepreneur, had to say after she decided to do something about it.

Witchcraft's first book, Home, is a memoir by a former chef who opened a rescue and rehabilitation center for stray and paralyzed dogs in Thailand after leaving his job due to a life of drug and alcohol addiction.
The book will be released on August 26, 2024, on International Dog Day.
Anyone who purchases the book will be making a direct donation to the dogs in need, and Witchcraft will flip the royalties back to the nonprofit, meaning the rest of the book's royalties will be put toward continuing the rescue and rehabilitation efforts of the dogs in need.
