Review for Humane Society Of Richland County, Ontario, OH, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have volunteered as shelter help and as a board member of the HS for over 7 years. Throughout changes in staffing, policy and funding, the staff keeps on chugging along trying to care for as many animals as possible with a limited amount of money. The organization is funded only by fundraisers, donations and any grants that can be secured. Life in a shelter is tough mentally and emotionally for staff and animals. I commend anyone who works day to day in a shelter....it is amazingly hard, but often rewarding!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

I have adopted many animals from here and sent hundreds to new homes from the facility. It is a great feeling to rescue an animal from a bad situation then be there to see it find a new family.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Secure more funding for more programs and staffing. This would allow the animals to benefit from more attention and excercise during the day.

Role:  Volunteer & I have done just about every job at the shelter and one the board at one time or another an will continue to do so.
 

Review for Wildlife Haven, Crestline, OH, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have volunteered on and off at Wildlife Haven for almost twenty years. The animals there get such great care and everyone truly wants to help each one have a second chance and a normal life. I learn so much about wildlife when I am there and can in turn share that knowledge with others!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

Volunteering there for almost twenty years.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

I wish they had more resources for new equipment and facilities so more animals could be helped.

Role:  Volunteer & Care for injured and abandoned wildlife.
