Volunteer
 Our volunteers are our most important asset and they do a remarkable job for the animals, the shelter and our programs. If you would like to join us to find homes for animals, educate the public or raise funds, this is what you need to do:
- Complete an application.
- Attend a Volunteer Orientation Session. You'll be contacted to reserve your spot.
- Be 18 years of age or older. Youth ages 11-17 must be accompanied by a parent for all volunteer sessions.
Everyday,
a volunteer helps improve the life of an animal
here at the Wisconsin Humane Society. Our volunteers
help over 15,000 animals a year through such programs
as Foster Care, Dog Walking or working in our Wildlife
Rehabilitation Center. Our beautiful shelter allows
us to provide the best creature comforts for our
animals and the volunteers who interact with them.

Exciting volunteer opportunities that help animals are always opening. Learn more about becoming an Adoption Greeter!
Our state-of-the-art building includes areas designed
specifically for socializing cats and rabbits. The
Canine Country Clubs are where we teach manners
to our pooches and the Day Spa is for grooming and
bathing some of our furry guests. We also have an
outdoor Wildlife Rehabilitation area where wild
animals receive special treatment before they are
released back to the wild. Each volunteer position
offers a unique and rewarding opportunity to make
a difference for animals.
Volunteers as young
as 13 years old may volunteer by themselves in our
Orphaned Bird Care program that takes place during
the spring and summer months. The Wisconsin Humane
Society gears each volunteer position to the appropriate
aged volunteers. For some positions, young people
may volunteer with an adult. Please read each volunteer
opportunity for the minimum age requirements.
