Volunteer
Volunteering is very important to the animals and the rescue for many reasons. You will get to be a part of the solution by joining a group of people working to make the world safe and more humane for all living creatures.
You'll make the jobs of everyone working for animals a little easier by lending a hand and spreading the message of responsible pet ownership and animal protection. You'll make lots of new friends, and not just the four-legged kind.
Working side by side with people who share similar interests can forge lifelong friendships. You will get to make a difference in the lives of hundreds of rescued animals by enjoying a wagging tail, a purr, and a smile.
You'll never find a more grateful and accepting feeling than an animal you've comforted. The best things in life are free!
