Milton Animal League: Volunteer Recently Updated

The Milton Animal League is a volunteer group dedicated to the rescue, care, and adoption of animals in need at the Milton Animal Shelter.

Many of our volunteer questions come from students.  Here's the scoop - in order to join the ranks of the dedicated volunteers:

We have a lot of students who want to volunteer, which is great. We have a schedule of volunteer times, and you may need to wait until there is an opening. We ask student volunteers to sign up for no more than 1 - 2 hours at a time.

You must be 18 years or older to volunteer to work with the dogs. You must be 15 years or older for all other volunteer tasks.

If you are a minor, you'll need to get your parent or guardian to sign a permission form.

Many students fulfill their community service requirement at the shelter. You'll need to fill out a form at the shelter to record your hours, and get it signed by an adult volunteer in order to get credit from your school.

You'll be asked to help with any number of shelter tasks, such as:

• Cleaning cat cages
• Walking dogs
• Restocking supplies
• General cleaning, such as mopping floors and doing laundry
• Answering phones
