*As of April 1, 2020 new onsite volunteers are not being accepted into the volunteer program and orientations have been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

We ARE still accepting new foster volunteers.  If you are interested in fostering please send your contact information to stephanie@oahs.org 

We will post any changes and updates here.  We are following suggested precautionary measures to prevent possible exposure and spread of the COVID-19 virus (coronavirus). Our top priority is the health and safety of our volunteers, staff and guests.  Please check back for any future updates on volunteer scheduling changes. 

Volunteer Requirements:

  • Be at least 16 years old. (Our Family Partnership Program allows children age 12 and up to volunteer with an adult guardian. Click here for more information.)

  • Volunteer a minimum of 8 hours per month
  • Attend a volunteer orientation and any necessary follow-up hands-on training sessions
There are many volunteer opportunities available at OAHS, whether you want to help by working hands-on with the animals, volunteering at outreach events, or even just by dropping off a donation bank at a local business. Volunteers make Life Saving possible. For more information about volunteer opportunities, contact Stephanie at (920) 424-2128 or e-mail stephanie@oahs.org.
