| Medina County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals |
Now is an excellent time to become a
volunteer for the Medina County SPCA!
Our volunteers are an essential part of our programs and our
efforts on behalf of the animals. The volunteers may work
directly with the animals as foster homes and in animal care at
a facility, such as our Petsmart cages or in our animal care
facility (cleaning, feeding and socializing the animals). We also
need volunteers for animal transport to veterinarians or clinics
or to special events and other activities in the community. Our
volunteers also assist us in continuing our educational
presentations in local schools.
You can choose to work on specific events or volunteer for an
ongoing committee.
It is impossible to express how important the volunteers
are to our continued work!
We currently have many opportunities for volunteers. There is
something for everyone, whether you have a large or small
amount of time to give. You can volunteer from home, from
your car, or at our fund raising events. You choose the location
and the times! Simply read the brief descriptions below to find
your area of interest and contact our Volunteer Coordinator, to
learn how you can get started!
FOSTER HOME
Do "purrs", "wags" or "puppy kisses" make your day? Then
consider being a cat or dog foster home. We desperately need
caring, responsible pet lovers to join our foster home team by
opening their homes and their hearts. Foster homes provide
the love, security and daily care a rescued animal needs.
Everything else is provided to you - we will pay for food,
supplies and veterinary care.
EVENT COORDINATORS
Volunteers are needed to help with the promotion,
coordinating, and planning of community events. This is an
excellent opportunity for anyone who enjoys working with
people and being creative.
PROMOTERS
Do you ever run errands? Do you have a bulletin board at
work? Then you can help promote the SPCA! We need
volunteers to put up flyers on community bulletin boards. We
provide the flyers and you hang them at your convenience while
you are out or at work. The perfect way for busy people to help!
PHONE & OFFICE WORK
Do you like to talk on the phone or are you organized around
the office? Volunteers are needed to help answer phone and
perform basic office duties at our animal care facility, and also to
retrieve voice mail messages from various phone lines, return
calls and direct messages to the appropriate people. We are
making plans to have a phone that can be answered "live" by
volunteers during certain hours that the animal care facility will
be open so that we can give the public more ready access to
the Medina County SPCA.
HUMANE EDUCATION
Are you good with kids? Are you good at speaking in front of
others? Then we NEED you! We need volunteers to make
presentations to schools, youth groups and community groups.
We have a Fun Facts activity book for pre-school and school
age children. Through education, we can promote the proper
care of animals and the importance of responsible pet
ownership. If you are able to help, Email our volunteer
coordinator to find out more!
FUNDRAISING
The Medina County SPCA receives no federal or state funding,
so our fundraising events are a crucial part of the financing we
need to operate. Volunteers are needed to make phone calls to
members for event staffing, to contact merchants for donations,
sell tickets, bake, cover a shift at an event, hand out literature
and chair an event. New faces and ideas are needed.
RECYCLE
Organize an aluminum can recycling event to benefit the
animals. The SPCA profits from cans dropped off at the Medina
City Garage (781 West Smith Rd). Collected Saturdays from
10am-noon. Ask family, friends and neighbors to help. Clubs
and groups add the SPCA as one of your community service
projects. Other aluminum, brass and copper are collected
separately.
