Britton Hunter graduated from the University of Kansas with a degree in Journalism and worked in advertising before beginning her service in animal welfare. After she began volunteering at the KCMO Animal Shelter in 2008, she put all of her energy into improving the lives of the animals there by both walking dogs, and recruiting and training new volunteers. Britton soon became the President of the shelter's non-profit and, when management changed, renamed the group and amended its overall mission. Once, Friends of Halfway Home, Friends of KC Animals' provided aid to animals throughout the entire Kansas City area. It was a charity that helped countless dogs and cats by assisting thousands of struggling pet owners who couldn't afford veterinary care on their own. One of the principal goals of FoKCA was to spay and neuter as many pets as possible to decrease pet homelessness, and the non-profit served for over a decade before this final transition to Fix'em KC: A Spay/Neuter Solution. She currently serves on both the Fix'em KC Board and on the SNCKC Board. 

Britton continues to help animals in need and consistently strives to educate others on responsible pet parenting. She works to curb dog and cat homelessness through, as she says, "spaying and neutering anything that walks," knowing that fixing pets and increasing adoptions are the very best ways to decrease the community's overpopulation crisis.

Her advocacy for ALL animals comes from an inherent compassion for every living thing, and a knowledge that each creature, big or small, deserves kindness, respect, and the chance to live each day to the fullest.
