- Collect items such as laundry detergent (HE), puppy food, cat litter, toilet tissue and paper towels
- Play with the dogs in the outdoor play area or cuddle and play with the kittens in the kitty/cat play room
- Schedule a time with your child’s school to talk to the young about importance of spay/neuter and humane treatment of animals
- Help at or come to one of the fundraising events
- Ask your neighborhood store owner if you can put a PCHS donation jar in their store and collect the donations monthly
- Shop at or donate to the FOFF Store.
