Organizations across the country are celebrating National Volunteer Week, and it is not just the humans who are saying thank you. The Wisconsin Humane Society and its campuses across the state rely on volunteers inside and outside their shelters. For some volunteers, it is as simple as taking them for walks and cleaning cages. For others, it requires welcoming a pet into their house to give them a respite from the shelter and prepare them for their forever home. Tanya Ditzman from the Wisconsin Humane Society says that, like many organizations, volunteers make their mission possible.

In addition to celebrating National Volunteer Week, the Wisconsin Humane Society-Door County Campus is preparing for its annual rummage sale next week. You can donate items to be sold during the sale on May 2nd from 4 to 8 p.m. at Arle Memorial Hall in Sturgeon Bay. The sale will also take place on May 3rd and 4th.
