Volunteering
Room
for One More is always in need of Volunteers. It
takes a lot of time and energy to run a rescue
shelter and with full time jobs it makes it even
harder. So we could use all the help we can get.
Here are some of the area's we desperately need
help in. If you ever wanted to get involved in a
rescue this is a great opportunity!
Fundraising:
Running
Room for One More costs us roughly 5000.00 per
month. This includes rent, electric, telephone,
trash pickup, medications, vaccinations and
vetting our animals. We survive on donations. We
do not have any government support and we have no
grants at this time. It gets harder and harder to
be in three places at once. Running the rescue,
doing adoptions, cleaning and fundraising in
addition to lives outside of rescue (what is
that??) We are looking for people who can attend
bake sales, food drives, and other fundraisers.
We need man/woman power! Of course we show you
how its done! This is great to do with your kids
too!
Cleaning:
On
average our kennel manager is at the rescue 12-13
hours a day cleaning, medicating, excersising,
and doing adoptions. It is a lot for one person.
We are looking for anyone who would like to help
out during the week or on weekends. Even if one
person comes in and just scoops litter pans, or
just does dishes, or cleans the cat room, the
office etc. The days we need the most help on are
Mon, Tues, Wed, Fri, Sat, or Sun.
Bathing
Dogs:
Sometimes
it is easier said than done! But lets face it,
puppies can get messy really fast! They play in
the mud, in their kennels, in the grass etc. They
are always a mess! And its not just the puppies
that are pouncing the dirt. Our adult dogs forget
that they arent puppies! We have a full bathroom
with a bathtub and lots of wiggling dogs that
could use regular bathing!
If
any of these volunteering options sounds like
something you would like to help out with please
email us at roomforonemore@gmail.com
