Offsite Volunteer Opportunities
-
- We often get groups of young children who would like to volunteer in some way. Due to our minimum age requirement of 16, to help at adoption events, we encourage our younger supporters to get involved in other ways. We have had groups make toys for the puppies, blankets, organized a donation drive (either monetary or for much needed items from our wish list), we even have had a carnival and sports event planned with the proceeds benefiting Bosley’s Place. We are very open to ideas you may have as well. Each of these outside projects culminates in coming to the facility to present the efforts of their hard work, and of course getting many puppy kisses as a thank you!
- At times, we do have onsite projects we need help with, availability would be determined at the time of the volunteer inquiry.
