The purpose of this nonprofit is to nurture, educate, and engage our community in the care of cats and dogs in need, giving as many animals as possible a chance to thrive in loving homes.
Volunteer opportunities include: office work, general cleaning tasks, grounds maintenance, construction, animal socialization, grooming, dog walking, fostering, and transportation for veterinary appointments.
The animals in our care depend on volunteers, time spent with them improves their lives while they wait for their forever home.
Please consider giving some of your time to help the animals at HSIMC and ensure we can continue on our mission to save as many lives as possible.
You must be at least 18 years old to participate in the volunteer program. Anyone under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian at all times.
For more information, please reach out: info@hsimc.org or call the office at 707-485-0123.
