Our single greatest volunteer need at IMHS is for Retail Associates to help for 4 hours, once weekly (Saturday or Sunday).
I can't emphasize enough how important this is to helping animals. The Second Chance Thrift Shop, located just upstairs from the shelter, supports a 1/5 of our operational budget in the shelter. Quite simply, our thrift shop volunteers have a significant impact on saving animals' lives, every day, by doing what they do!
Can you help? This is a terrific opportunity for mature youth volunteers (16 yrs and up--great resume building experience!), retired folks, or ANYONE who can commit to giving us 4 hours each week, reliably.
