Our Programs

Auburn Valley Humane Society has a vision to be a model of excellence in the advancement of animal welfare. In that vein we seek to enrich the lives of companion animals and people through animal sheltering, programs and community engagement. Please see below for some of our programs.

AVHS Thrift Store

The Thrift Store & More has a dealer consignment area featuring antiques, jewelry, specialty items, and other collectible treasures. All proceeds benefit the lost and abandoned animals at the AVHS shelter as well as the programs provided by the Auburn Valley Humane Society.
