    While the work isn't glamorous, you can find great satisfaction that you're providing an essential service for the smooth running of the shelter. Open to parent/youth (at least 9 years old).

    You would perform tasks at the shelter like...

    • Doing the laundry
    • Washing & sanitizing water bowls and litterboxes
    • Washing cat-carriers and feral boxes

    It's the only RASKC volunteer position where you get to work throughout the RASKC campus!

    (The Shelter Helper work does not allow for touching any dogs).
