    Description

    Support our animal protection campaigns from home

    Phone banking is an easy, flexible and important way to help animals. Through an online system and following a script, volunteers place phone calls to supporters and voters around the country to support our legislative priorities. Subject matter varies widely, including wildlife protection, animal cruelty, farm animal protection, animals in research and companion animal issues. There are often volunteer opportunities 7 days a week and time commitment is flexible. Phone calls are non-reimbursable.

    Benefits of volunteering

    Volunteers strengthen their knowledge of animal protection issues and the legislative process while advancing the animal protection priorities of Humane World for Animals.
