Care Closet Organizing Volunteers
Suitable for Groups- Suitable for Seniors
Have a couple of hours to spare? Help us make a lasting imPAACT!
PAACT (Pet & Animal Advocacy Care Team) is a registered, entirely volunteer-run nonprofit dedicated to strengthening the bond between pets and their people. Our Care Closet provides FREE essential pet food and supplies to individuals and families experiencing financial hardship, helping ease the financial burden of pet ownership and prevent unnecessary separation between pets and their families.
We are looking for a few community members to lend a helping hand in reorganizing our Care Closet storage space and donated supplies. Our goal is to create a more functional, accessible, and efficient system so our volunteers can spend less time searching through donations and more time preparing essential supplies for those who need them.
No previous experience or ongoing volunteer commitment is required! Whether you have volunteered before or simply have a couple of hours to spare, we would love to have you join us.
As a thank-you, volunteers will receive a pre-made goodie bag filled with treats, wet food, and other goodies for their own pets!
Sometimes, making a difference simply means showing up and lending a helping hand. Just a couple of hours of your time can make a lasting imPAACT for pets and the people who love them!
