Do you love animals?  Do you want to help animals?  If so, S.O.L.A.S. would be great for you!  We have volunteer opportunities in the following areas: 

We are looking for people with computer skills to help update this site and our online pet listing sites like Petfinder, 1-800-Save-a-Pet and a few others.  If you have a little time and a computer that is the first step, if you have a digital camera and can come to the shelter to take pictures that would be very helpful too.
