Volunteers are an integral part of any nonprofit organization, especially that of the Bradford County Humane Society. Winnie Moyer, a BCHS volunteer and animal advocate, has been assisting with events and fundraising for many years.

Moyer, office manager at East Smithfield Holistic Healthcare in East Smithfield, PA, has been holding an ongoing rummage sale for BCHS for quite some time. Items of all sorts are available for a small donation which in turn goes to help animals at BCHS.

"We are so thankful to Winnie for thinking of our shelter animals and wanting to assist us with raising funds for them," states Jennifer L. Spencer, BCHS Executive Director. Winnie also volunteers her time by assisting with Picnic With Your Pooch, Pancake Days, A Night to Paws Gala and other BCHS events.

Volunteers can walk dogs at the shelter or at BCHS events, socialize and even read to cats at the shelter, assist with cleaning, lawn care, and many other tasks. To become a BCHS volunteer you must fill out a volunteer application and attend an orientation class where you will learn the history of BCHS, proper ways to walk dogs and the ins and outs of being a volunteer. Stop in to BCHS on Route 220 in Ulster, PA to fill out an application.
