Associate board members take on a variety of fundraising projects on their own and also work together with main board members on other committees.  While we limit the number of actual members on both boards, there's a great need in our organization for all kinds of people willing to donate their time and talent to helping save the lives of more of Chicago's neediest animals.

Friends volunteers with the Associate Board held a dog wash this summer. The weather wasn't very cooperative but everyone had a great time!

The Associate board meets once a month and the location varies.  Please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it for information about the next meeting date and information on how you might play a role in our organization.
