Volunteer

Shelter Opportunities

All volunteers who are going to work at the shelter must attend an orientation, sign a release and have an interview with the Shelter Manager before job placement. The purpose of the interview is to discuss needs, talents, and time availability and to then find the appropriate job to fulfill those requirements. Adult Volunteers are individuals 18 and older. Junior Volunteers will be accepted at 14 years of age. Performance will be monitored and tasks assigned according to level of maturity and skills.  Click Here for additional information and an application.

Someone Here Needs You

 

ON-SITE SHELTER POSITIONS

 

ALL ANIMALS

GREETER/MATCHMAKER – Greet visitors to our shelter and take the animals out of the kennels or cages for them.  You can let them know any particular things you may know about the pet and the foster/adoption programs.   Helping a customer find their “match” is important and rewarding!

 

 

 

CAT CUDDLERS – This job helps reduce any stress we may have as well as get us used to interacting with different people.  It also helps you get information about us which will help place us in the right home.  Also, we get to be petted, loved and cuddled – what more could we ask for?

 

 

 

 

 

DOG WALKERS – In this job you can walk either small or large dogs – whichever you prefer!  By walking us, you help reduce our stress by giving us exercise and stimulating us by letting us sniff and see different things outside.  At the same time, you are helping us stay socialized with people and you can help determine if there are any specific training needs we may have.  You can also teach us some basics, like sit, come and stay!

PLAY TIME COORDINATOR – In this job, you will be responsible for taking one or two dogs into the play yard and playing with them.  This will help keep us happy and ensure that we are able to get along with other dogs as well as people. 

DOG FEEDING – Of course after all that activity, we dogs are going to be hungry and we love to be feed between 3:00 and 5:00 p.m. every day.  Of course a pat on the head or a hug along the way is always welcome!

OTHER OPPORTUNITIES

Fundraising Volunteer

As the human population increases in Camden County, so does the animal population. And as the animal population increases so does the homeless animal population and therefore the needs of the HSCC. The contracts with the County and Kingsland provides only for the care of the animals which are brought to us for 5 days. Beyond that time, it is fundraising monies that provides for the shelter and care of the animals that are awaiting adoption.   In this job, you will help staff coin drops, charity golf tournament and other fundraising activities throughout the year. 

Furry Ladies
We started a group of volunteers called the "Furry Ladies." This is a group of local women we can call upon to assist us in our various fundraising activities. When we have a special event planned, we first ask this group for help.

Board Member
We are always looking for new Board members. The Board provides for the majority of support for the HSCC in various ways. Through committees, shelter help, fundraising, local contacts, and by their specific area of expertise, the board members keep the HSCC going and growing. We have nurses, Veterinarians, retired corporate Vice Presidents, CPAs, individuals with varied education and business experiences all of which make us a better and more functional organization. All it takes is a willingness and some time.

Education Assistant
We have an education committee that will provide programs for all ages. Schools, after school programs, Scouts, Nursing Homes, are just a few of the organizations that ask us to provide some education and assistance to their constituents. In order to provide such educational programs and to increase what we can offer, we need volunteers who are willing to give up a few hours a month to go fulfill these requests. We desperately need people who can help develop new programs, people who are retired teachers who are used to delivering a message, people who can help with this Web page maintenance, people who can help spread the work about the need for vaccinations and spay/neuter.

Who to contact to Volunteer:

Our Volunteer Coordinator for fundraising activities is Jim Caskey. He may be contacted by phone at 882-8508 or by e-mail at caskey1@tds.net. You may also pick up a volunteer form at the HSCC shelter.  If you are interested in volunteering at the shelter, stop by and see the manager.  You will have to complete an application before starting.
