driving a rescue dog to/from a shelter and a new home (foster or permanent); this can be local or as far away as Louisiana. On the longer trips, we try to work with both parties to meet halfway, if possible.
ask your company if they have any Grant programs or a Volunteer Involvement Program like ExxonMobil.
take a foster dog home for the weekend to play with, take to events, or just to the local dog park for the day.
help with car/pet washes, advertising programs such as the Randalls Good Neighbor Program or Kroger Share Card Program, setting up auctions, garage sales, organizing a fund-raising event like a dog walk, identifying other fund-raisers like Affiliates, etc.
updating the pet listings on PetFinder.com, maintaining the CafePress store, website updates, etc. **We are currently looking for a graphic artist to create some new Siberian Husky clip art for our website.** Please email us if you are interested.
occasionally we need to do kennel repairs or build new ones, clean-up runs/kennels/crates. We also get together the first Saturday of every month to give the dogs their heartworm medicine, bath them, and clean their kennels. Also, if you would like to come out and work on basic training with some of the dogs, Please email us.
volunteers to take a rescue to an "adoption day" event like at PetsMart, Petco, etc.
starting and maintaining a monthly/quarterly newsletter, grant writing, etc.

whatever your talents are we can use them! For instance, we had a graphic artist student donate some of her drawings to place on items to sell as well as for our new logo. We also had a seamstress make and donate 2 quilts for auction at our dog show booth. The opportunities are endless, just let us know how you'd like to help.
