Volunteers are the very heart and soul of NCCR. Without everyone’s efforts we would not be able to care for 200-300 dogs each year. Each month we feature one of our great volunteers and this month it is Lynn Marie Schroeder. If you have a few hours a week to spare, come and join the great team at NCCR! Your contribution of time can make a huge impact of the lives of the dogs in the care of NCCR. Fill out a volunteer application today! Volunteer Application

Then there is the friendships of my fellow rescuers. We keep each other going when it gets rough, laugh at ourselves and our charges, and share our devotion to help these amazing creatures. I treasure these wonderful people I consider my friends. 

When people learn that I volunteer, I hear the same old ” I could never do that I would bring them all home” That was me,I thought that way…but that changed when I held my first little terrified furbaby, I knew I was making a difference in their lives without bringing them all home. And this is why I volunteer.
