Did you know that PCHS is run almost completely by volunteers?
Except for our shelter manager and the DOC inmates who do animal care during the week, all the jobs done to help care for the animals and keep the shelter running are done by volunteers. There are many ways you can help. Whether you'd like to help with direct animal care, or raise the much needed funds to keep the shelter open, there is a spot for you in our organization. It's easy to become a volunteer for PCHS. Just follow the steps below and you'll be helping the homeless pets of Larned and Pawnee County in no time. 1) Check out all the volunteer opportunities we have and figure out which one is right for you. 2) Fill out a volunteer application. You can fill out this online form and email it to our volunteer coordinator, or download a PDF version and bring it to the shelter. 3) Attend a volunteer orientation. They're held on Monday evenings from 6 to 7 pm at the shelter. 4) Commit yourself. We don't require a set schedule, but we do ask our volunteers to commit to a minimum of one shift per month. Once you've completed all these steps we'll make sure you get the training you need to perform any of the volunteer jobs you've chosen. |
We are unable to accommodate anyone seeking community service hours. |
