Youth Volunteer Opportunities

While volunteers need to be at least 18 years old to work directly with our animals, there are other opportunities for younger community members to get involved! Youth volunteer opportunities can be completed individually or with friends, extracurricular groups, Girl or Boy Scout troops, sports teams, classrooms, church groups, or other community organizations.

How Kids and Teens Can Get Involved

Check out these ideas and choose your favorite!  At the completion of your supply drive or fundraiser, email Emily to schedule a drop-off and tour.

Host a Supply Drive

Host a Supply Drive within your classroom, girl/boy scout group, or in your office among coworkers!

Collect donations over your desired length of time. At the end of your collection period, contact our Director of Community Engagement to arrange a time for drop off and to schedule a shelter tour with your group! Tour is optional.

We are always in need of paper towels, bath towels, dog/cat toys, puppy pee pads, and more.
