ABOUT
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Good Shepherd Humane Society Board of Directors is a dedicated team of volunteers committed to advancing our mission of compassionate care and responsible pet adoption.

​

Meetings:
Board meetings are held on the 4th Tuesday of each month at 1:00 PM at our Adoption Center (6486 HWY 62 W in Eureka Springs). Meetings are open to all GSHS members. To ensure productive discussions, member comments are limited to three minutes per person.

​

About the Board:
Board Members serve five-year terms and help guide the organization through policy development, budgeting, grant writing, marketing, education, and fundraising. Our volunteer Directors contribute an average of 8-12 hours per month and actively participate in events, committees, and community engagement.

​

New Directors complete an orientation to learn about shelter operations and our thrift stores, helping them connect with staff, volunteers, and the animals we serve.
