Animal Rescue Seeks Volunteers

By Press Release

OCEAN VIEW — Beacon Animal Rescue, a no-kill cat and dog Rescue located on Butter Road in Upper Township, is seeking additional volunteers after Labor Day to fill shifts vacated by summer volunteers as well as students and teachers who have returned to the classroom.  
Especially needed in the fall are:  administrative and clerical volunteers with computer skills, afternoon dog walkers who can commit to a specific day and time, kennel cleaners from 8 – 10 a.m., cat room cleaners from 8 – 11 a.m., and volunteers to staff various shifts at the Beacon cat adoption center inside the Somers Point PetSmart store.  
Complete a volunteer application online at beaconanimalrescue.org or stop by the Rescue during public hours, Tuesday through Friday 2 – 5 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday 12 – 3 p.m., and complete a paper application.
In 2016, Beacon placed 167 dogs and 124 cats into permanent homes.  The non-profit rescue operates a cat and dog adoption center at 701 Butter Road in the Palermo section of Upper Township, as well as a cat and kitten adoption center within the Somers Point PetSmart store.
