National Volunteer Week 2026

PADS volunteers power 90% of what we do and help change lives, one dog at a time.

As we mark National Volunteer Week, we want to take a moment and say thank you to our incredible PADS volunteers.

You power 90% of what we do and help change lives—one dog, one partnership, and one act of kindness at a time.

We invite you to watch the video message from our CEO, Andrea Wright, and Kristy James, Chair of our Board, who share their gratitude and appreciation for everything you do.

 

Thank you for being the heart of PADS. We are so grateful for your dedication and remain committed to supporting you in the year ahead.
