Volunteers are an important part of every
department at the Fredericksburg Regional
SPCA, and opportunities to serve are numer-
ous and varied — from socializing dogs and
cats, laundry, donation sorting, development
assistance, outreach at events and more! The
only requirement is a desire to join their team.
Volunteers are required to be 16 years of age or
older to come in independently, however, there
is no age requirement to complete service work
alongside a parent or guardian.
If you have a Middle school aged youth that
would like to volunteer, consider inquiring
about our upcoming youth volunteer program,
scheduled to launch in late January. Students in
this program will be learning more about animal
welfare and will complete various activities
and crafts. They'll also get hands on experience
working with the animals in our care.
To learn more about the volunteer program,
please contact Alison Carlin, the volunteer
coordinator, at alifredspca@gmail.com.
