ORGANIZATION: The Humane Society of Southern Arizona
The Foster Care Volunteer provides care for animals that are not yet ready for adoption: very young, sick or under-socialized. Placing animals into qualified foster homes on a temporary basis enables the HSSA to save the lives of animals that might not otherwise be saved. While the typical foster cases are infant dogs and cats, foster care is sometimes needed for adult animals recovering from illness or surgery, or animals that need socialization, a time away from the shelter and/or training.
Fostering is hard work--but it's also really fun! It's the ideal volunteer activity for someone who is unable to make a lifetime commitment with an animal companion (due to work or travel or other restrictions), but who thrives on interactions with animals.

Acting with compassion and responsible stewardship through innovative programs that serve pets and the people who love them.
All animals in our care are our clients. Each animal that enters the protection of the HSSA will be treated with dignity and respect from loving, responsible, well-trained caregivers, during every moment it remains under our guardianship. Our commitment to our animals is to provide them with safety, comfort, and the best possible stay within our walls, as well as to use all available means to find each animal a responsible, devoted, and permanent home.
At the Humane Society of Southern Arizona, we provide animal care and housing, adoption counseling, a lost-and-found program, animal cruelty prevention training, spay/neuter services, vaccination clinics, community outreach programs, and more.
