How You Can Make a Difference
Volunteer Application
Since its modest beginnings of almost 20 years ago, The
Frontier Animal Society has been the training ground for countless
numbers of good people who have come together with a common
purpose--helping the stray and abandoned animals in the Stanstead,
Ogden area.
Here volunteer opportunities exist in every field of animal
welfare. Those who prefer the challenge of physically caring for
pets are welcome seven days a week. This work consists of
exercising, bathing, and grooming dogs that are available for
adoption; helping with the medical care of ailing animals; and,
most importantly, keeping tails wagging and eyes shining with lots
of love and attention. Cat lovers may elect to work exclusively
with cats and kittens. Volunteers are also trained to help the
public select animals for adoption and to counsel and educate
while doing so.
Volunteers are also needed away from the shelters, to help show
and give information about animals at adoption events. They are
also needed to transport animals from shelters to vet offices, to
other shelters, or to rescue organizations in the Eastern Township
Region.
Those who prefer a less physical role may wish to become
involved in writing, publishing, special events, telephoning, or
mailing activities. Artists, photographers, and those with
computer skills are invaluable for our vital advertising efforts.
As we continue to develop as an organization, we are in constant
need of volunteers with decision-making and administrative
abilities to serve actively as board members.
Seasoned volunteers have experience in many areas of the FASAF
involvement and, through ingenuity and perseverance, can proudly
boast of having rescued dozens or even hundreds of animals from
untimely deaths. After attention to medical or other problems,
these cats, dogs, puppies, and kittens have been placed in loving,
permanent homes. As a result, hundreds of people have been
educated about the appalling crisis of pet overpopulation and the
role of the Frontier Animal Society in attempting
to solve it.
Opportunities are only as limited as your imagination. For love
of the animals, please call our us at (819) 876-7785 and
learn more about becoming a Frontier Animal Society volunteer, or complete our
