ASCC d/b/a A Second Chance Animal Shelter is a no-kill, 501(c)3 non-profit corporation, located in Manning, Clarendon County, SC. Our sweet, adoptable cats and dogs are housed on site. We receive no government funding to assist with the shelter operations or staff salaries and payroll taxes. We are funded strictly by proceeds from A Second Chance Thrift Store and the kind and compassionate donations of shelter members, volunteers and friends.
Mission Statement: To shelter and protect the unwanted and abandoned animals of Clarendon County, to facilitate the adoption of those animals, to promote population control through spay and neuter programs and to educate the community about the care of animals.
We are always thankful for our volunteers, who help at the Thrift Store, walk and socialize dogs and cats, stuff envelopes for mail-outs, donate baked items for bake sales, and assist with other fundraisers. Volunteers may come in during office hours and fill out an application. They will then be contacted to come and attend an orientation, then "roll up their sleeves" and pitch in.
Complete adoption application form, we reserve the right to do a home visit, and the right to refuse adoption to what we would consider an unsuitable home for the animal
