Volunteer Accounting & Finance Consultant for Non-Profit ( Animal Shelter)

Save to Favorites

Who We Are:

We are a volunteer based, registered 501c3 non profit Animal Shelter looking to grow and become fully operational. We are a start-up and need all of the help we can get to continue doing great work for the animals and community, as our hands are full with physical work at the sanctuary location which limits our time for social media promotion, responding to messages and emails, outreach and similar tasks.

Aside from our work with the animals, we are advocates for animal welfare and rights for those "without a voice" in general. We work with the community to educate them not only on the importance of animal welfare and care, but also values and kindness.


Our Mission:

Our mission statement lies within our name and with every act of outreach. CEMEVA Foundation understands that the entire topic of Animal Welfare stems from a lack of compassion and values and that those fundamental topics always must be addressed as well. We aren't trying to put a "band-aid" on the wound, but instead work at its core problems and origins to decrease them through education and workshops of various kinds.
