Animal Rescue Volunteer (National opportunity)

Animal rescue volunteers work with our Animal Rescue Team (ART) to help save animals who are victims of cruelty and disasters. When the ART responds—whether to a hurricane, large-scale neglect case, dogfighting or commercial breeding operation—animal rescue volunteers travel from all over North America to assist in the ongoing care of dogs, cats and other animals who have been rescued from harm.

Those volunteers help provide care to animals in our shelters or assist with distributing supplies and providing other support to pets and other animals in impacted communities. Animal rescue volunteers come from all walks of life, generously giving their time to apply their skills and experience in response to animals in need. From animal handling and cage cleaning to administrative tasks, the work of animal rescue volunteers exemplifies Humane World for Animals mission: to end animal suffering.
