11:00am–12:30pm
Location / Venue
Are you ready to make a difference in the lives of homeless dogs, cats, and small animals? Consider joining the incredible team of volunteers at Pope Memorial Humane Society (PMHS)! Volunteers are the backbone of our mission to ensure the compassionate care, treatment, and placement of companion animals in transition, as well as to enrich the lives of pets and people in our community.
Every volunteer task plays a vital role in giving these animals a brighter future, from walking dogs to assisting at events. Tasks include:
- Cleaning cat areas and kennels.
- Helping at the front desk.
- Supporting PMHS events.
- Walking and exercising dogs.
- and more!!
Most volunteers commit to one shift per week, typically lasting 1 ½ to 2 hours, and we are grateful for their time and dedication.
