Help Build a Memorial Space for the Pets That Changed Everything

Legacy Paws Rescue is a veteran-owned 501(c)(3) dog rescue and sanctuary on five acres in Catawba, North Carolina. Our property is home to Rainbow Bridge Island — a dedicated memorial space where families come to grieve the animals they have loved and lost. We need a coordinator to help us build this program from vision into something real and lasting. Responsibilities include helping design the physical memorial space on the property, developing the submission and tribute process for families, creating the program structure and materials, and establishing a simple ongoing maintenance plan after launch. This role sits at the intersection of creativity, compassion, and organization. The work is emotionally meaningful and requires someone comfortable holding space for grief while also managing the practical details of building something new. Most work can be done remotely with occasional visits to the sanctuary in Catawba, NC welcome but not required.
