Shelby Coxon

Relationship Coordinator

I started with Always & Furever as a volunteer in August of 2017. Shortly after, I began helping with fundraising activities and became a cat foster—and a proud 3x foster fail to Chunk, Pam, and Marty (Wink). After working in education for over 25 years, I finally made the decision to follow my passion for animals and joined the team in September of 2024.

In my role, I oversee fundraising events and community outreach on the Missouri side, including our community visits, representation at local events, and school initiatives like Coins for Cats and Pennies for Pups. I also serve as our representative with both the Independence and Raytown Chamber of Commerce, working to connect Always & Furever more deeply within the communities we serve.
