Henderson County Animal Services Volunteer Program

About the Program

Category: Volunteers (Best in Category)

Year: 2009

While many animal shelters have volunteer programs, their program utilizes its volunteers more than most programs. Volunteers complete a broad range of services in the organization. Their compassionate volunteers assist at adoption events, advertise special events, take pictures, and help with community outreach at local schools. Included in the volunteer roster are professional trainers that do written evaluations on adoptable animals and hold free obedience classes at the shelter. Their involvement enhances the level of service to the community and care given to animals being sheltered by the county at minimal cost to tax payers.
