If you would like to make a difference in the lives of our animals, we would love to have you join us!
In order to be a volunteer:
- Fill out our Volunteer Profile
- Attend an information session.
- Be 18 years old or older.
- Be able to donate at least 8 hours a month for 6 months.
- Be available on weekdays.
- Have good customer service skills
- Support the mission, principles and policies of the Humane Society of Charlotte
When we receive your profile, you will get an e-mail about our upcoming volunteer information session. After you select a date, you will get a confirmation e-mail. Please do not attend an information session without prior confirmation.
The volunteer information session is one hour long. Some positions require extra training, such as our Basic Feline Socialization and our Walk to Adopt programs. After completing these classes and a one-on-one shadowing session, you are welcome to spend time with our animals. If you are going to volunteer only for special events, you are not required to take the animal handling class or do the one-on-one session.
If you have any questions, please contact Cat Belteau, volunteer coordinator via email: cbelteau@humanesocietyofcharlotte.org or phone: (704) 494-7706.
