Bereavement Support
The death of a beloved pet is one of the most difficult times any of us can face. Can you be an empathetic listener for someone who needs to talk? Volunteers play a vital role in telephone support, pet loss meetings, personal support and public relations. Assignments are structured, and volunteer training and support are provided.
Public Education & Community Relations
Help us spread the word about the Society at dog shows, trade fairs, conferences etc. Assignments are flexible and are usually 3-4 hours in length. A great way to meet other pet lovers. Enthusiasm and a warm smile are definite assets.
Special Events
Lots of energy and enthusiastiasm is needed to make every special event a success! Putting on an event takes a great deal of work and help in a variety of areas is always needed.
Fundraising
Or should we say FUNdraising? No telemarketing here; just some easy, effective and fun activities that will encourage people to show their support for the Pet Therapy Society. We need people to take part in the creation and/or implementation of fundraising activities.
