Volunteers are the lifeblood of Animal Humane. Each pet resident that comes through our doors blossoms from the TLC, exercise, training and grooming which volunteers provide. Volunteers also give invaluable support to our staff. The exceptional care and service we are able to provide in all our operations would not be possible without the assistance of our volunteers.
