I'm allergic to cats/dogs/peanut butter, can I still come to the service group?Depending on the level of your allergy. If you have a severe allergy, please do not participate in the service group. We cannot guarantee there to not be fur, dander or pets throughout the building and our lobby. Please reach out to your group leader if you have concerns.
Will our service group take place outdoors ?Yes, dependent on temperature. Please dress appropriately. We will limit the time spent outdoors if it is too cold or too hot, but dog walking and some service activities do require being outdoors.
All service groups are subject to cancellation due to weather or road conditions.
Do you offer service groups for more than/less than 2 hours?No, Service groups are scheduled in 2 hour- slots.
What should we wear?Wear comfortable clothing that you are able to get dirty, as that might happen! We also require closed-toed shoes; we recommend sneakers or tennis shoes.
My group has more than 15 people, Can we still Volunteer? Certainly! We ask that groups are limited to 15 people at a time due to the size of the shelter. If you have more than 15 people, please sign up for two service groups. These service groups will need to be scheduled on separate days. This way, we can ensure that everyone has an amazing experience volunteering with plenty to do!
