About Our Non-Profit

The Cumberland Valley Animal Shelter, Inc. is an independent, non-profit 501(c)(3) community-supported animal shelter that provides services for animals in need. Early grassroots efforts for the shelter actually began in the 1970’s, and throughout the years, the shelter has been maintained by a number of different organizations. In 1994, CVAS established itself as an independent, non-profit entity.
The shelter provides a variety of services for the surrounding community and its animals and functions under the direction of a volunteer Board of Directors, as well as an experienced staff. Through contributions from private individuals and organizations, the shelter maintains its dedication to animals. Without the generous support of the animal-lovers in this community and beyond, CVAS would not be able to care for the more than 2,000 animals that come through the doors every year. Shelter staff, board members and the four-legged friends in the kennels can’t thank our donors enough for their support.
Help us help them by donating, volunteering or adopting today!

Second Chance Fund

Our Second Chance fund is money that is set aside for any animal that may enter our shelter who needs special medical care (ex. broken leg, heartworm, etc.) that our everyday funds would not be able to cover. Every single donation goes to helping that animal in need!

  • Kitten Season
    With Kitten Season still here, one of the biggest concerns is what one should do when they come across a newborn kitten. Here’s what you should look for if you find a baby without a mom and don’t know what to do.
  • Please Note
    It's hunting season again in Pennsylvania, which means more wildlife is moving about. If you have found a wild animal, please contact the PA Game Commission at (814) 643-1831 or (814) 643-9635. Cumberland Valley Animal Shelter handles only domesticated animals and pets.
