Who We Are
The Volunteer Auxiliary For Animal Shelters, Inc. is a non-profit organization run solely by dedicated volunteers committed to helping shelter animals. We work with the Ocean County Animal Shelter (North) located in Jackson, NJ. We help by evaluating the animals and assisting with adoptions. A large part of our adoptions are done at off-site locations, staffed solely by volunteers. These locations have enabled us to place many animals in loving homes. If you are interested in volunteering, please call 732-341-9959 and leave a message.
If you would like to make a donation, we are a 501(c) 3 corporation and listed as a charitable organization. Your donation is tax deductable. Please address your donation to The Volunteer Auxiliary 615 Freemont Ave. Jackson New Jersey 08527.
Your donations give sick, injured and homeless animals a chance.
Cats At Petsmart
Petsmart has graciously provided us a room to house cats that we have for adoption. While the cats can be viewed any time the store is open and applications may be left at anytime, most adoptions are done on Saturdays from 10am-2pm and Sundays from 11am-3pm. The store is located in the Home Depot Shopping Center on Route 70 (east) in Lakewood. It is just east of the Garden State Parkway (exit 88).
