They need you. We need you. You can make a difference.
As the one of the largest animal welfare organizations in the Inland Valley, the Inland Valley Humane Society & SPCA relies on the assistance of caring, hardworking volunteers to help us find homes for the thousands of animals that come through our doors every year. You can help us care for the lost and abandoned animals of our community.
Every day at IVHS our volunteers make an enormous difference in our lifesaving mission.
