When you volunteer with Pope Memorial Humane Society, you become part of a compassionate team working to give every animal the care and love they deserve. Whether you’re hands-on with homeless pets or providing vital support behind the scenes, your time makes a life-changing impact.
We’ll provide all the training you need to help safely and effectively — no prior experience required! Volunteers play an essential role in nearly every part of our mission, from animal care and fostering to special events, community outreach, and administrative support.
There’s a place for everyone here. Explore our current volunteer opportunities below and find the perfect way to make a difference!
