CPHS VolunteerVolunteer

Volunteers are a vital part of the CPHS team. Without them, we would not be able to perform many of the essential functions at our shelters.  CPHS is always looking for eager volunteers to assist with the shelter animals and everyday responsibilities of shelter life. Whether you are interested in walking dogs, helping at events, or socializing cats, there is a place for you at CPHS. The animals are waiting for you...get started today!
