Let's Make a Change
Here are some ways you can help.
Volunteering at the Shelter
The Safe Haven would not exist without our wonderful volunteers because they are our most valuable asset. We are always looking for enthusiastic, reliable people to help with our cat care. If you can spare an hour or two (or more!) every week to assist, the kitties would love to see you! Please click the link below to fill out our digital volunteer application form. We will review your application and contact you to set up an orientation as soon as we are able.
Cleaning is done daily in all cat areas. Litter boxes must be scooped and cleaned; blankets, bedding and cat stands brushed off; sweeping and mopping of floors; filling food and fresh water; and many other tasks that make the Haven the special place that it is for the cats in our care.
The hours the shelter is open for volunteer shifts are:
Monday – Sunday mornings – 8:00 am – 12:00 pm, noon
Monday – Sunday evenings – 6:00 pm- 8:00 pm
Note: Volunteers under the age of 16 must have adult supervision.

Monthly and Yearly sponsorship is available. Sponsorship of a Safe Haven Cat is a minimum of $10 a month. This money goes towards helping with their food, litter, care, and medical needs. You can do this through any of the ways we have available for donations.
Bottle Refund Program
You can help us raise money with the Return-It Express Bottle Refund Program. Express donations are changing. To make things easier and more convenient for fundraising groups and individuals looking to donate their deposit refund, donations through the Return-It Express program can be made through an individual’s personal Express account.
Our phone number does work. Use: (604) 794-7233
To ensure your donation goes directly to the right cause, we’ve made it easier and more secure to donate directly through your personal Return-It Express account.
