Annual Membership Fees
- $15 per single person
- $25 for a family
- $7.50 for a person under the age of 18
When you become a member of AARCS you will receive a membership card in the mail valid for bonuses, perks, and discounts at local, supporting businesses. Please see below for a list of businesses and what they are currently offering AARCS Members.
Members will also receive newsletters and up-to-date information from AARCS via mail or email, as well as an invitation to attend the Annual General Meeting. We welcome anyone with an interest in animal welfare to join AARCS. Memberships expire on December 31 of the year they are purchased.
Remember: to be a volunteer, or to help with a specific project, you do not have to be a member of AARCS.
We do, however, encourage all people, including foster families and our volunteers to become members of AARCS. Memberships are important because:
- You get to vote on important issues;
- Your membership shows a commitment and public support of the goals and mission of the organization;
- Your membership helps AARCS show that we are supported by the community when discussing funding with those who provide grants and corporate donations, and;
- All of the money received for memberships goes directly to helping the animals that we rescue.
It’s an easy way to help the animals and to know you are making a difference.

Vendor’s Offer: 50% off of any groom of a dog for an AARCS member (she does not do cats), one time only. De-matting a dog is extra. As far as de-matting goes, Jen takes a “Humanity before Vanity” approach as matts are extremely painful, she will shave the dog as coats will grow back. When you meet with Jen you need to be 100% honest with her about your dog (nipping, biting, fear, etc).
