With so many homeless animals in need of shelter, nonprofit animal rescue organizations such as the Humane Society of Ventura County rely heavily on donations to keep our doors open. Here at the HSVC we are very fortunate to have the support of our community on many different levels. Our dedicated volunteers play many roles that include helping socialize the animals, performing grounds work, photographing animals, and assisting at the front desk. Businesses throughout the county show their support by hosting events, contributing portions of their sales, donating goods and services, or placing a donation box at their establishment. Even the youngest members of our community get involved through schools and youth organizations or independently by collecting goods on their birthdays and donating funds earned from doing chores around the home and neighborhood.
