Why volunteer with LAPS?

LAPS does not have ANY paid staff members ... just a very dedicated board of directors, members and volunteers to help raise money to help our community.  These volunteers donated over 1900 hours in 2022 to help with our mission.  LAPS can not continue to assist our community without your help.

We have fun dog friendly events for volunteers to help with either at the event or helping promote the event.

LAPS prides itself on extremely low overhead with nearly 100% of donations invested directly back into our community for the benefit of companion animals in need. 

We look forward to seeing you at our next charity event. Please come have some good fun with others, for a great cause.
