Volunteer: Thrift Shop CashiersHSSV is not supported by lucrative government grants and contracts like many big-city shelters are. The majority of our funding comes from community support, as well as sales at our Thrift Shop. That's why it's such a vital component of our shelter's ability to thrive and why we must keep our overhead to a minimum. To that end, we need help from volunteer cashiers. DUTIES: Operate cash register for a four-hour shift, greet customers, make change, help with items behind our display case. No experience necessary, we'll train! Contact 360-424-5991 between 11:00 am and 6:00 pm. Be sure to leave a message if you get our voicemail and we'll get back to you ASAP. You could also come to visit us at the store between 11:00 am and 6:00 pm, Monday through Saturday to meet us in person! This is a great opportunity for youth seeking real-world work experience or seniors who would like to get out of the house and socialize!

Volunteer: Barn Buddy TeamThe Humane Society of Skagit Valley (HSSV) Barn Buddy Program was established to find feline-friendly homes for cats who, for various reasons, would not do well as indoor-only companion pets and are considered unadoptable through our standard adoption process. Cats who are placed into our Barn Buddy Program fall in these main categories: Cats who were found as strays are assessed to be unsuitable for an indoor-only life. These cats may have demonstrated behavior such as being overly feisty, extremely shy/fearful of people, extremely independent or have shown other behavior indicating an indoor-only life would not be suitable for them. Owner surrendered cats who lived or spent considerable time outside who are unable to adapt to indoor life. Owner surrendered cats who were indoor cats but exhibit behavior that make them more suitable as an outdoor or indoor/outdoor cat.We are currently seeking volunteers to help with this program. Volunteers for this program help to make sure the cats in our colony are safe and well-fed, watch out for any medical issues and report them to staff, keep fresh clean drinking water available, and pull food in the evenings to avoid attracting predators.
