You can volunteer whenever you have time.

~*~*~ NEW ACORN FUND ~*~*~
Please help the acorn fund grow!!
A new Acorn Fund with the Community Foundation of Madison & Jefferson County named "Friends of the Jefferson County Animal Shelter Endowment" has been started by an animal shelter supporter. An Acorn Fund allows someone to start an endowment with less than the $5000 minimum, and add to it in a reasonable amount of time until it reaches the $5000 goal. After that goal has been reached, GRANTS CAN BE MADE DIRECTLY TO THE ANIMAL SHELTER! Anyone can add any amount to this fund at any time. Contact the Community Foundation at 265-3327 or e-mail: jeffcom@cfmjc.org for more information.
