With spring comes kitten season. More than 300 kittens came through Brightside Animal Center’s foster care program last year. Volunteers are again needed this year, and for a variety of other jobs as well. Foster training is required for new foster volunteers.
Volunteers for other jobs in BrightSide’s shelter, thrift store and bottles and cans recycling program are always needed as well. Volunteer orientation sessions introduce would-be volunteers to the different jobs volunteers can do and what is expected of volunteers.
Registration is required for all sessions. To register, call 541-923-0882 during normal business hours, Tuesday – Saturday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and ask for Volunteer Coordinator Carol Staropoli. This is the schedule for March:
