MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

Join Our Volunteer Team!

HSNEI depends on our volunteers to help socialize and enrich the lives of the cats and dogs in our care.

We value our animals, volunteers, and staff members: we want everyone to have a healthy, safe, and rewarding experience at the HSNEI Shelter/Love & Friendship Adoption Center. This is a top priority at HSNEI!

Please ask us questions and have fun! We will do our best to ensure your volunteer experiences meet your expectations.
