Volunteers at the Toledo Area Humane Society are caring people with individual skills, talents and interests who advocate for animal welfare as representatives of the organization's philosophies and beliefs. In addition, volunteers provide support to supplement and enhance the professional staff, creating a team that works together towards our established vision as well as allow us to extend our valuable community programs otherwise limited by financial resources.
"How can I become a TAHS Volunteer?"
Volunteers must be at least 10 years old and accompanied by a parent if under age 16. We request that our volunteers commit to at least 6 hours per month for a minimum of 6 months. Students needing service learning hours for school or church must be at least 16 years old and prepared to work in our animal care & cleaning jobs. All volunteers must complete an application and attend a two hour orientation before beginning their volunteer service. Orientations are offered twice each month, and include important information about our organization's programs and services along with a description of each volunteer opportunity as well as a tour of the facility. There are several volunteer jobs that require additional training sessions. "What happens after I submit my application?" All volunteers should be current on tetanus vaccinations and carry health insurance. Please remember that while we take great care to ensure your safety, we are housing animals that are sometimes unpredictable. Good judgment and safe animal handling are a must when volunteering at TAHS. If you have additional questions, please contact the TAHS Volunteer Coordinator at (419) 891-1561. |
