The St. Joseph Animal Shelter is looking for volunteers for a makeover project.
GreaterGood’s Rescue Rebuild will be in St. Joseph next month to work on some improvement to the local shelter.
Shelter Humane Educator Jenna Keyes said the main goal of the makeover, sponsored by Nestle Purina, is to improve the cat housing.
“Our main purpose is to find more ways to create more cat housing and create good environments for the dogs as well, and just brighten up the shelter and do a little bit of a makeover,” Keyes said.
The work will take place from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. September 10th through the 18 at the shelter. Keyes said they need a lot of volunteers to have a successful makeover.
“There will be all different types of volunteer positions where you can fit in and use your skills to help out the shelter,” Keyes said. “Any volunteers we can get out here that are willing to help and really make a big difference for the animals here at the shelter, we greatly appreciate that support.”
Anyone interested in volunteering for any part of the project needs to register online and fill out a survey indicating areas of interest and time availability. For more information, go to the Friends of the Animal Shelter Facebook page or fill out the survey here.
