Animal Shelter Volunteers of Texas
Our Mission
Animal Shelter Volunteers of Texas is a 501(c)3 tax exempt animal welfare organization that is 100% funded by your donations. We are a group of volunteers dedicated to helping abandoned, abused and neglected animals.
ASVT provides foster homes and medical care for stray, injured and abused dogs and cats in the Montgomery County, Texas and surrounding area. Our goal is to place these pets into permanent, loving, forever homes that will suite the animal and the family best.
ASVT partners with out-of-state animal rescues and shelters in need of adoptable animals and transports animals to them.
ASVTs adoptable dogs and cats are in foster care, working on learning proper behavior, house training and adapting to living as part of a family again. Each animal in our program has different needs. We are dedicated to finding the right fit for your family and for our adoptable pet.
