Can I complete community service hours at the Humane Society? Print E-mail

We do accept community service volunteers. Hours for civic organizations, fraternities, schools and court-appointed assignments can be completed at the discretion of the Volunteer Manager. Appropriate documentation can be provided as needed.

Court-ordered community service volunteers must meet the following requirements:
  • You must be 18 years of age or older.
  • Your charge must be a misdemeanor offence or “PBJ” (no community service hours will be granted to volunteers with prior felony convictions.)
  • You must be able to provide documentation that the charges meet our guidelines.
  • All community service volunteers will be requested to work outside cleaning our cemetery or other areas of the grounds as deemed appropriate, and must be able to work in a self-directed environment.
  • The Volunteer Manager can provide documentation of your service only if you sign-in each time you volunteer.
  • You must be able to complete your hours during business hours or when the appropriate staff member is available on the weekends.
