About Vermont Volunteer Services for Animals Humane Society

About Vermont Volunteer Services for Animals Humane Society
Skinny Minny was abandoned by her owner, brought to the VVSA and now is a well fed and happy cat!

VVSA is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to working on behalf of animal welfare and humane education.

Since our inception in 1986 as a non profit humane society, VVSA has been a forerunner in animal welfare and protection in Vermont.

Our work encompasses humane legislation, senior citizens' pet programs, feral cat rehabilitation, wildlife assistance, animal adoption and the first spay neuter assistance program in the state of Vermont.

Our involvement in combatting animal abuse has earned us a reputation as a reliable resource in animal law enforcement, crisis intervention, and abuse prevention.

VVSA has a broad base of member and community support which has grown to include veterinarians, wildlife rehabilitators, educators and law enforcement.

VVSA receives no federal, state, nor municipal funding, but relies on its own fundraising efforts, donations and volunteers.

Mission Statement:

Incorporated in 1986, VVSA Humane Society is a 501 (c)(3) organization. We are adult and children volunteers who care deeply about animals and our community. The cornerstone of our efforts is to educate and promote the importance of spay & neuter, thus creating an awareness in Vermont about cat and dog overpopulation. These companion animals enhance the quality of our lives, and often their company provides our senior citizens with a quality of life that would otherwise be non-existent.

We believe that children are the future of humane awareness and that education and hands on experience will enable the opportunity to learn responsibility, commitment, and a sense of caring for sentient creatures, as well as the environment and a sense of community service.

Please help support the VVSA!
