Volunteer orientations are scheduled monthly.  At this session, you will receive an overview of the sanctuary, our volunteer management system, and have a chance to ask questions about

• Marty’s Place facilities, programs and policies
• Resident dogs and their care
• Volunteer opportunities
• Our online Volunteer Management using Volgistics and its VicNet module, which allows you to schedule your time at the sanctuary and helps us to determine tasks, days, etc. where we need coverage and additional resources.

As a small, start-up nonprofit organization, Marty’s Place relies heavily on volunteers to support its operational needs. We truly appreciate any and all help our volunteers provide.

Some of the areas where assistance is needed include: dog care and socialization – interacting with our resident dogs and helping complete the daily tasks associated with their care –cleaning rooms, grooming, laundry, socialization, walking; outreach, fundraising, mowing fenced yards and clerical.

Your application must be received prior to attending orientation.
