The Siouxland Humane Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to the welfare of animals. We are highly dependent on help from our volunteers. Your willingness to join the Best Friends volunteer program makes a tremendous difference in the lives of Siouxland’s abused, neglected, and homeless animals. Best Friends needs volunteers in the following seven areas. Please place a check in the box next to the area of activity in which you would like to participate. Please remember each area represents a commitment of your time so choose only the areas you have a particular interest in. If you have a special talent or interest you're willing to share please let us know in the comments section. If you need more information regarding certain activities, please call Kelly at (712) 252-2614.
