On April 21, team members at our Kinston office rolled up their sleeves and got dirty volunteering for the Lenoir County SPCA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals). We helped to feed and walk the animals, as well as helped out with cleaning. The Lenoir County SPCA is one of the few animal shelters in North Carolina run by a non-profit instead of local animal control. The organization is solely supported by the community, not the ASPCA, and relies on volunteers to help with the 130+ animals they are caring for at any given time.
