Volunteering

 

Sanilac County Humane Society is not supported by any federal, state or county agency, or any state or national humane organization, our two constant and greatest needs are volunteers and donations. Without volunteers, our effort to rescue homeless animals cannot continue. Although we have many amazing supporters, we have very few active volunteers willing to regularly work with the rescued pets and take care of their needs. Therefore, WE NEED YOU!

With more volunteers, we are able to participate in community affairs and offer information about our animal rescue efforts and about responsible pet ownership. As more volunteers join us, we will be able to brainstorm on fundraising and other means of seeking funds and donations.

We are also seeking sponsors for our popular animal adoption column in “The Jeffersonian” and “Sanilac County News.” We are looking for support from our community to write stories about our animals and our shelter in the local press.
