National Volunteer Appreciation Week
During April, we celebrated National Volunteer Appreciation Week. Our team of volunteers and fosters play a crucial role in maintaining the health and happiness of our pets. In 2025, volunteers contributed over 28,000 hours supporting daily care, enrichment, adoptions, laundry and dishes, and much, much more.
