Opportunities From: Volunteer River Counties

Opportunity to work in one of the area's best and friendliest thrift stores! Channel your inner retailer and find your happy place like many others have. Volunteers organize, itemize, then display sale items for the public to browse and shop, knowing all proceeds support the animal shelter operations, including veterinary care.  Volunteers who carry merchandise to the pricing area build muscle while getting first look at the fantastic items our community generously donates. Volunteers get a 50% discount and opportunity to have fun while helping the Friends of the Northumberland County Animal Shelter raise much needed funds. Hours and days are flexible.

Volunteers play an important role in caring for cats/kittens by fostering, maintaining clean conditions, and socialization.  These efforts help improve the animals' adjustment and increase their chances of finding loving forever homes. 

Foster Volunteers offer temporary homes for those who need extra attention.  Small kittens, moms and babies, or those who need short-term medical care. 

Animal Care Volunteers maintain healthy living spaces by sanitizing kennels, changing bedding, and ensuring cats have fresh food and water.

Socialization Volunteers spend time interacting with cats/kittens through play, handling, and providing human affection to build their confidence and trust.
