Second Chance for Animals, Inc. is a nonprofit volunteer group devoted to enhancing the lives, adoption rates, and experiences of the animals living in shelters.  We currently assist the Franklin Township, NJ Animal Shelter.  Learn more about us here, To learn more about adopting a pet from the Franklin Township Animal Shelter, please visit their web page at the petfinder.org web.

SCFA always need volunteers!  Due to cut-backs at the Township our help is needed more than ever.  We can always use folks in all areas of our group.  Call 732 748-SCFA (7232) and let us know you would like to help.  Be sure to leave a clear message and include how we can reach you.  You must be 18 or older in order to work with the animals.

Important news - the Franklin Township Animal Shelter is now open for adoptions Thursday evenings from 5:30-7:30 in addition to Tuesday-Saturday 12 - 3PM. We hope this will make it easier for working people to be able to find their new pets.  (Volunteers are still welcome to come for our regularly scheduled socialization period which also is Thursday evenings between 5:30 and 7:30.)

Grant Award:

SCFA is happy to announce that we are the recipients of a $5000 grant from the Banfield Charitable Trust!   This grant assists us with our program of providing pet food to the Franklin Food Bank.  The Banfield Charitable Trust joins us in our belief that helping needy families feed their pets enables the families to keep the pets in the home where they are loved and cherished.  We understand how terrible it is for both the families and the pets when forced to surrender the pets to a shelter.  It also helps the shelter by reducing the number of surrendered animals.

You can learn more about the Banfield Charitable Trust by visiting their website or at their Facebook page.
