For over 40 years, they have been around making a huge difference. Their mission is to provide building-centered programs, professional staff and a safe environment focused on youth from at-risk or disadvantaged circumstances. Close to 7,000 card-carrying members are served at five strategically located clubhouses with a sixth clubhouse scheduled to open in 2008. Cost to members remains at only $5.00 and no child is ever turned away for financial reasons.

In addition to rescuing and caring for over 35,000 abandoned animals each year, the Society offers low-cost spay/neuter surgeries and vaccinations to the community. They also offer pet therapy visitation programs, assistance to domestic violence victims, education and intervention for at-risk children, and free animal behavior/training advice and counseling. They also work diligently with law enforcement agencies to rid our community of animal cruelty.
