Volunteer
Interested in Volunteering?
You're in the right place! Let's get started:
We are transitioning to an exciting new online training portal for new volunteers!
During this time of transition, please note we will not be able to accommodate Youth Volunteers. The Youth/Adult Volunteer program will be resuming at a future time!
PROCESS TO BECOMING A VOLUNTEER
It is really this simple! You no longer have to come in for an in-person orientation! Sit back and relax while we guide you through what it is like being a volunteer at the SPCA!! See the steps below!
APPLY
Submit an application by following the button below.
COMPLETE
Watch all of the Orientation videos, submit any surveys associated with the videos, & Sign & Submit the DocuSign Waiver.
SCHEDULE
Once you have completed all of the requirements, you will be given access to the Online Learning Portal (where you will be able to complete online training courses and review materials in our vast Volunteer Library); and Volgistics (where you will be able to schedule in-person training sessions and schedule your shifts).
Volunteer Requirements
- Be at least 18 years of age. Volunteers must be at least 18 years old.
- Commit to 25 hours per year. We require all volunteers to commit to a minimum of 25 hours per year or at least one shift per month.
- Consistent access to internet and email. We communicate with our volunteers through email and we have changed the way that we train to online training courses to make it easier than ever to volunteer with us!
- Ability to follow written and verbal instructions. For the health and safety of the pets and people at the SPCA, our volunteers must be able to follow all protocols and instructions given from staff.
- Be a Team Player! We are in this together. Our volunteers must be able to work well with others and work independently (without supervision).
- Complete onboarding and training requirements. All volunteers must complete the New Volunteer Orientation as part of the onboarding process for our program. Volunteers must also complete any required training for the Volunteer Team Assignment that they are interested in.
Important
Unfortunately, we are not currently able to accommodate:
- Adult/Youth Co-Volunteer Teams at this time.
- Court-ordered or lawyer-recommended community service
- Group volunteering
