Volunteer in the Spotlight: Mary Moyer Mary Moyer has been volunteering at the Finger Lakes SPCA for nearly 10 years. After reading about animal rescue situations that FLSPCA had participated in, Mary decided to stop into the shelter to inquire about volunteering and has been providing her service and passion ever since. A retired public school teacher, Mary dedicates her time by helping out at fundraising and public relations events as much as possible, as well as filling in whenever needed. Although it is challenging to find other volunteers when extra help is needed, Mary finds reward in knowing that she is answering a need and making a difference. Read More about Mary > Learn More About Volunteering at the Finger Lakes SPCA > Save the Dates! 2014 Volunteer Management Conference: Streams of Service April 10 & 11, 2014 Join the Southern Tier Regional Volunteer Center and partners for the 2014 Volunteer Management Conference on April 10th and 11thin Binghamton, NY.
