Table Mountain Animal Center Charity Profile

Founded in 1976 by an intergovernmental agreement, originally, the Jefferson Animal Shelter served as the impound facility for unincorporated Jefferson County and the cities of Arvada, Lakewood and Wheat Ridge. After years of success, the Jefferson Animal Shelter reevaluated its mission and goals in 1994 to accommodate growing demands on the facility and changes in the external environment. As part of the reevaluation, the shelter changed its name to Table Mountain Animal Center (TMAC). With the new name came expanded services, more efficient operations and greater public outreach, including the addition of the City of Golden as a member agency.

Decreased funding for services and the rapid growth of the communities it served led the Center to establish a charitable arm to help raise philanthropic support for the Center’s programs. In 1994, the Table Mountain Animal Center Foundation was founded and granted its 501(c)(3) status.

Today the Center is one of the leading adoption facilities and educational resources for animal care in the state of Colorado. We serve the communities of Golden, Morrison, Mt. View, Edgewater, Westminster and the municipalities mentioned in the above paragraph.

Table Mountain Animal Center Volunteer Information

Table Mountain Animal Center is very appreciative of the support given by its volunteers. The generous help volunteers provide assists us in giving the quality care to our animals and excellent services to the public. Our Volunteer Program offers a wide range of opportunities to individuals over the age of 18. For children under that age, fostering has been a great option for an entire family to experience volunteerism while helping animals in need.
