Many Paws Make
Light Work!
Volunteers guarantee CARA's future. Everything you see at CARA and
on this web site has been created by volunteers like you. We know
that anything is possible when caring people work together. When we
give, not only are we saving the lives of homeless animals, but we
find true happiness within ourselves.
Come
join others any Saturday from 10am - 2pm to help. If you are under
16, you need someone 18 or older to stay with you. :-)

| Volunteers
are vital to the success of our organization. CARA operates
mostly with volunteers, relying on the commitment of dedicated
animal lovers. Even the board members scoop their share of poop! Due
to funding limitations, CARA only contracts three part-time people
who perform daily animal management which includes kennel cleaning,
feeding, etc. CARA relies on volunteers to do the rest. |
| |
| Socializing
animals, fundraising, educating our community, recruiting new
volunteers, etc. are just a few of the many ways you can help. Your
time is a valuable gift and just a few hours will make an incredible
difference in the lives of homeless animals. |
| |
|
General Guidelines: |
| |
| Due to state
regulations, any volunteers who will be cleaning the facility must
complete a training class. All volunteers are encouraged but not
required to attend a formal orientation at the shelter. You can
click the above link to attend our virtual orientation and learn
about CARA's history, needs, and future. |
| |
| Volunteers
must be at least 16 years of age to participate independently -
but still must be signed in by a parent or guardian.
Volunteers under 15 years of age must be accompanied (within an arms
reach) by a parent or guardian AT ALL TIMES.
The adult must maintain control of the animal (holding the leash,
etc.) at all times.
CARA is not liable for any injuries as
volunteers spend time in the facility at their own risk. Animals are
unpredictable and so are people, so always use your best
judgment when volunteering. :-) |
