Thank you for your
interest in volunteering with the Kings County SPCA. We depend
heavily on our volunteers, without you we could not operate!
Wondering
what's involved in being an SPCA volunteer?
We need volunteers for all shifts
but particularly need help in the mornings and evenings. There
are a number of tasks available for volunteers such as:
- Animal Care - working directly
with the animals, feeding, cleaning, administering medications,
walking dogs, socializing cats, etc.
- Maintenance/Trades- smalls
repairs, carpentry, landscaping, etc. as needed
- Housekeeping - washing walls
and windows, mopping floors, laundry, etc.
- Run errands, donation pick
ups, food/litter runs, etc. A vehicle would be required
for this type of assistance.
Other Volunteer opportunities:
There are also volunteer opportunities
outside the shelter, such as:
- Helping at our fundraising
and educational/PR events.
- Help with the newsletter
- Work with the youth group
- Serve on the Board of Directors
- Serve on one of the Board's
Committees.
