Don Beattie, who was always there for the animals and people of CHS. |
Thank you for your interest in being a volunteer at The Coastal Humane Society! We serve as many as 2,500 animals per year. We cannot do it without people like you. Our volunteer needs range from weekly commitments to once a year…and everything in between. We look forward to rewarding times together!

Tiny. Plucky. Selfless. Generous. Four words that fit perfectly with Janis Chapman. Many volunteers cross our path here at Coastal Humane Society. We value and appreciate each one. Once in a while a volunteer thinks "outside the box" and explores the "what would happen if" side of volunteerism. Janis is one of those volunteers.
She arrived at our doorstep in January. She is a dynamic ball of
energy. Besides volunteering at our shelter, she devised a fundraising
effort centered on Valentine's Day. After discussing her idea with our
volunteer coordinator, Janis sprang into action. She decorated the many
boxes you see here with cat and dog photos then received permission to
place them in local areas. People quickly filled the boxes with many
needed supplies after checking our Wish List which Janis had attached to
each box. Janis collected all the boxes (five of them!) and delivered
them to CHS on February 14th as a Valentine's gift for our canine and
feline residents. We received cat toys, rawhides, cat and dog treats,
cat and dog food, towels, blankets, laundry detergent, and bleach.
Coastal Humane society extends a sincere thank you to the many people who donated. Though Janis posted a thank-you sign in all the areas that participated, we want to extend a public thank you via our website to Pet Quarters, Lazy Bones, Bowdoin Museum of Art, Bohemian Coffee Houe, Brunswick Hannaford, Merrymeeting Plaza Shaws, Brunswick Bookland, and Pejepscot Terrace. Our animals are thankful for all the donations. We are thankful for Janis. She epitomizes selflessness and generosity.
