A Message from our Staff

Without the help of our many generous donors, volunteers, and Board members – like YOU – none of this would be possible. Our staff and our shelter animals THANK YOU!

Carol Falconer, Shelter Manager

At Friends Forever, we are fortunate to have a wonderful team of dedicated staff members, thoughtful and hard working Board members, a lot of generous volunteers, and many supportive fans.

Our staff are caring, hard working, and experienced. Their love for animals drives them to provide excellent care for our shelter animals. Their respect for animals drives them to do everything they can to find suitable and loving homes for them.

Together, we make Friends Forever a wonderful place for our animals to receive the care they deserve in a safe and nurturing environment until they are able to move on to permanent, loving homes.

We invite you to come visit us and meet the staff. On any given day, you could also meet the members of our Board and many of our volunteers, all of whom spend a great amount of time at the shelter helping.
