BC SPCA - British Columbia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Volunteer Information
The BC SPCA relies on the hard work and compassion of more than 4,000 volunteers to assist in the care of some 42,000 animals who need our help every year. We call them volunteers, but to the staff, and the animals, they are heroes. In every capacity they serve, volunteers are a highly valued resource to our society and are making a very real difference to the lives of so many animals.
