Volunteer at HSSC

Thank you for thinking of HSSC as the place to donate your time. We know that you have endless opportunities to volunteer within the Quad City area and we are thrilled that you are interested in supporting our organization and the lifesaving work we do.

Volunteers are an integral part of our success, and we have a wide variety of roles to fill. Whether you want to attend events, help enrich the lives of pets in shelter, assist with laundry or dishes - we need you! You must be 18 years old or older to be able to volunteer.

With your commitment and assistance we will work together to make HSSC successful in promoting animal welfare, promoting adoption, providing public education, and giving shelter animals some much needed love and attention!

There is currently a delay in onboarding new volunteers due to staffing shortages.

How to Become a Volunteer

1. Watch the volunteer orientation video linked below

This video goes over information about our organization and the importance of volunteers, different volunteer opportunities, our mentorship program, as well as general rules and guidelines for being a volunteer.

2. Take the volunteer quiz

This short and easy quiz is to test your knowledge of the basics of our volunteer program.

3. Apply!

Once you've completed the quiz, you will be prompted to complete our volunteer application.

4. Pay a one time $15 volunteer fee

This fee covers the costs of your volunteer t-shirt and a background check. If the $15 fee is a barrier to becoming a volunteer for us, please email cweaver@hssc.us and we will waive your fee.

5. Join the program

Once the above steps have been taken, our volunteer coordinator will reach out to schedule an introduction session at the shelter.
