We are offering KCS this summer. Please read the information below to apply.

The Kids Community Service(KCS) volunteer program teaches middle school and high school students about our humane society, the community, and the animals we consider family. Students earn community service hours by helping to maintain the shelter facilities by washing dishes, folding laundry, sorting donations, and socializing adoptable animals. Space is limited to six students for each weekly session. Students volunteer on Tuesday or Wednesday afternoons from 4:00-5:00 once a week for four weeks.
