Assisting with Fundraising & Marketing

There are many ways you can help with fundraising and marketing. We have two big fundraising events each year (Tails at Twilight Gala and Walk for the Animals) and there are also smaller events that we need help with. Getting the word out about our mission and homeless pets is vital and we need volunteer help in these areas also. If you are interested in putting information on listservs, message boards, community calendars and blogs you would be a great fit for this department. We can also use help with graphic design, data entry and other clerical tasks.

If you are able to fulfill the requirements below and are interested in volunteering to assist with fundraising or marketing, please email volunteer@apsofdurham.org for this month’s orientation dates.

APS Volunteer General Requirements:

Volunteers must be at least 18 years of age (We have limited opportunities for teens which require volunteering with a parent or guardian. Please ask for more information).

Volunteers must work at least 8 hours per month and commit to volunteer for at least six months.

Volunteers must also be able and willing to follow the procedures we have in place for the safety of both our animals and volunteers.

All Volunteers must attend an orientation and complete necessary training before they begin.

We do not accept volunteers who are required to volunteer for court ordered or attorney recommended community service and we are not able to validate volunteer hours for such purposes.
