Volunteer opportunities include:

Adoption Events, at which we take shelter and foster animals into the community to increase their visibility, provide them with much-appreciated attention and exercise, and facilitate their adoption. For example, recent adoption events have been held at Printer’s Ale and in front of Horton’s Bookstore on Adamson Square.

Empty Pet Bowls, we maintain a pet food pantry to help financially challenged families feed their animals. Food distributions take place two Saturdays a month at our headquarters on Tuggle Street.

Education programs, such as planning and presenting workshops, school programs, civic group presentations

Community events and fundraising activities, such as the annual Fun Dog Show, MayFest, and Santa Paws pet photo sessions

Publicity – providing copy about CCHS activities for local news media, designing billboards, posters and brochures

And so much more – Everything from mowing the lawn at our headquarters to delivering dog houses to serving on our Angel Fund veterinary fund oversight board. There are innumerable ways to put your skills and interests to work on behalf of the humane society and the animals of our community.
