Your time will directly support affordable veterinary care, pet food assistance, vaccinations, and other critical resources for pets and their people throughout our community.
Special Instructions / Additional Notes
This event will take place outdoors, so please dress appropriately for the weather and wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes.
We recommend bringing a water bottle and any other items you may need to stay comfortable throughout your shift.
Please plan to arrive 5-10 minutes before your scheduled shift so we can provide a brief overview and get everyone assigned to tasks.
While we hope to have at least 3-4 volunteers per shift, additional volunteers are always welcome! Having extra helping hands allows us to keep the sale organized, provide a better experience for shoppers, and share more information about PRCKC's mission throughout the day.
We hope to see you there!
