H S D C Needs You!
Would you like to get involved in helping our community’s dogs and cats? At the Humane Society of Davie County, we are always looking for volunteers for various needs and events. With HSDC having a small staff and being a non-profit organization, we rely on the help of volunteers to accomplish so much in saving the lives of animals in Davie and surrounding counties.

We would love for you to join the HSDC Family!

Volunteer Opportunites
Branding
Event
Event Volunteers are essential in making an HSDC event a success.
Whether it is an adoption event, fundraising event, or a community outreach event, we cannot do them without volunteers.
Event volunteers are the key to being able to take more animals to or have more time for people to come by during an event.
If you can’t be a volunteer during the week,
events may be right up your alley.
From setting up the HSDC information table and cat adoption cages to handling dogs on leashes for people to meet, greeting the public, or transporting animals to and from the event, there are many duties to be covered, and we can always use help for these.
