Pet Food Pantry volunteers needed

We are in need of Pet Food Pantry volunteers! The shelter's Pet Food Pantry plays an important role in providing free pet food to community pet owners in need. As a Pet Food Pantry volunteer, your role would include serving the community by handing out pet food, treats, and items. We have shifts available on Saturdays from 12:00 - 2:00 pm and 2:00 - 4:00 pm. 

Thank you!

Our third annual Day of Giving was a big success! Because of generous animal lovers in our community, we raised a record-breaking $65,691, making a huge difference for more than 8,000 pets that will come through our doors this year.

We truly appreciate and value every single person who donated or shared our message. You are changing lives for so many animals in need, giving them the chance to live the life they always deserved, with people who love and care for them.

A special shout-out and BIG thank you to our top fundraisers, Tanya M., Taylor O., Ashley T., Shelby K., Stefanie C., and Chloe D! Thanks to their incredible efforts, and thanks to everyone who participated in our Day of Giving, we will continue Making Happy Happen for pets in need.
