Thank you for your interest in helping the animals at the Bakersfield SPCA. The SPCA has many areas that need your help, but it involves an investment from both parties—you and the SPCA—in order to provide the greatest benefits. Volunteering includes a commitment from you of time and compassion, and an assurance from the SPCA of training and support.
