Pets at Risk is a non profit organization with the mission of helping pets in need. The group raises money to help pay for spaying, neutering or emergency care for dogs and cats in the area as well as other services. Pets at Risk is always looking for new volunteers and ideas. Meetings are held at 5:30pm on the third Wednesday of each month at the First Mid Illinois Bank and Trust conference room.
