As
an RCHS volunteer you may work in the shelter, at home, or the
community. You may choose to help with a single event, or to commit
a couple hours a week on an ongoing basis.
Volunteers
are needed to assist in a variety of tasks. All volunteers must
be over 16 years of age and attend a training session and an orientation
meeting. (anyone wishing to volunteer
under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a legal guardian)
Bathing
and Grooming
Bathers and groomers work with animals in our adoptable
wards. Cats and dogs are brushed, bathed and treated for fleas
as needed.
Pet
Socialization
Walk a dog...cuddle
a cat! The Humane Society depends on volunteers to walk and play
with our friendly, adoptable pets. Regular play time provides
exercise and relief from stress, and is a great way to interact
with our homeless pets.
Special
Projects
The shelter
often has need of volunteers with special skills, such as carpentry,
plumbing, gardening (weeding, trimming shrubs, mowing), painting,
janitorial work, laundry, building maintenance, and data entry.
Special
Events
You can get
involved without ever having to visit the shelter by helping out
at Special Events. Volunteers with a wide variety of skills are
needed on a regular basis, such as at the Giant Garage Sale in
May, Kitten Shower, Bark in the Park, A Fetching Ball as well
as a variety of other activities throughout the year.

RCHS Manger (Kelly) at 636-7844 for more details

Thank you, Thank you.
