AHSTI is currently seeking a reliable and detail-oriented volunteer to assist our Servicing Department during a critical time each month.

Each month, during the second week, our Servicing Department prepares and mails important statements and documents to our customers. This process is time-sensitive and essential to ensuring families receive the information they need without delays. With our current staffing needs, we’re looking for volunteers to help us stay on track.

As a volunteer, you’ll assist with hands-on tasks such as folding statements, inserting them into envelopes, sealing, and organizing outgoing mail. While simple, this work plays a critical role in supporting our mission and keeping our operations running smoothly.

The commitment would be approximately 2–3 hours per day for 3–5 days (in the mornings) during the second week of each month, depending on the workload.

Your time and effort will directly contribute to helping families receive timely communication and support from our organization.

Join us at this year's Monarch Festival for a celebration of Monarch migration and our opening of the new Center for Urban Ecology expansion! Learn more about the Monarch life processes and how you can help them on their journey. There will be music, art, food, exhibits, native plant vendors, and a bug parade! 

Volunteers will be needed for help with various arts and crafts stands, and educational booths. Educational booths will be centered around pollination and native plant educations- so experience or passion on these subjects are definitely a plus, but not at all necessary. 

The Monarch festival will last 9:00 am - 2:00 pm. If possible volunteers are asked to arrive 30 minutes early to help with set up- although it is not a requirement.

Maintenance Assistant Volunteers help to ensure the upkeep and functionality of our animal shelter is invaluable in providing a safe and comfortable environment for our furry residents. From repairing fences and mending kennels to addressing plumbing issues and maintaining facilities, their hard work behind the scenes helps to create a space where our animals can thrive. Their commitment to keeping our shelter in top condition not only improves the quality of life for our animals but also enhances the overall experience for staff, volunteers, and visitors alike.

Calling All Dog Lovers! Make a Pawsitive Impact Today!

Are you a dog lover looking to make a real difference in the lives of shelter pups? Look no further!
Palm Valley Animal Society needs dedicated volunteers like you to join as a Pack member and become a dog walker.

Why Dog Walking Matters:
Every wagging tail, happy bark, and excited leap tells a story of hope and happiness. For shelter dogs, daily walks aren't just about exercise - they're about connection, enrichment, and the chance to experience the world beyond their kennels. This simple act can help save the life of one of our dogs; ask us how.

Here's why your help matters:

Physical Health: Regular walks are essential for a dog's physical well-being. They provide exercise, help maintain a healthy weight, and promote overall fitness.

Mental Stimulation: Imagine spending your days in a confined space with limited stimulation. For shelter dogs, walks offer mental enrichment, reducing stress, anxiety, and a decline in quality of life.

Socialization: Many shelter dogs long for human interaction and companionship. Walks provide valuable opportunities for socialization, helping dogs build confidence and trust.

Behavioral Improvement: Well-exercised dogs are often better behaved. By providing regular walks, you're helping our furry friends develop good manners and become more adoptable.

Increase the chances of Adoption:  Because we have more dogs than staff, we are not always able to spend this precious time with our doggies to help learn more about who they really are, so our volunteers will play a crucial role in letting us know how they did outside of the kennel and can also help provide insight on their characteristics and even get some great pictures and photos that we can share with potential adopters.

Join the Pack:
Volunteering as a dog walker at PVAS is a rewarding experience that benefits both you and our canine residents. Not only will you make lifelong furry friends, but you'll also play a crucial role in preparing dogs for their forever homes.

How to Get Started:
Ready to lend a paw? Sign up via Engagement Zone then await an email response from one of our Dept Coordinators or reach out to us. You can also get a step ahead of the game and submit your volunteer form via our main website. Whether you can commit to daily walks or just a few hours a week, every contribution makes a difference. There is additional training needed, but this is all to ensure you are well-equipped and confident in performing the task at hand.

Let's walk together towards a brighter future for shelter dogs!
