Volunteer

Lend a Helping Hand: Volunteer with Columbia Animal Shelter and Make a Difference in the Lives of Animals.

As a non-profit organization we rely heavily on the help of volunteers every single day of the year!  While the bulk of our volunteers are involved in direct animal care and cleaning/maintenance of the shelter, there are other ways to donate your time, too.  We hold many fundraising events throughout the year and often need help planning and executing those events.  We have volunteers that help with office duties, gardening, social media, and facility maintenance as well.  To become a volunteer simply fill out our application and we will contact you with information
