Volunteer of the Month January 2022 – Mollie Bee

Congratulations to our first Volunteer of the Month of 2022, Mollie Bee! Mollie has been with us since 2019, and recently, we’ve been so lucky to witness the greater impact she’s having on our community by loving on these animals and serving the shelter. You’d be hard-pressed to find someone with as much empathy, patience, and understanding as Mollie. She recently became a Yellow Level Dog Walker and has such an attentive eye for those shyer, fearful dogs. Mollie has an interest in and aptitude for dog behavior, which allows for her time with the dogs to be fruitful and relaxing. Mollie is always so quick to lend a helping hand. If she finishes with dogs early, she’s finding a way to help Animal Care with dishes, laundry, or cleaning. You can always count on Mollie to have a positive attitude and a willingness to serve.

How lucky we are to have you!

In the spring of 2019, NHA began revamping our volunteer program. We’re introducing programs for skilled volunteers, animal training for volunteers, and so much more.  We’re looking to build a volunteer force that is empowered to do so much great work for homeless and adoptable animals.
