ARF welcomes volunteers! We are run primarily by volunteer power - we all do this because of our love for the dogs. Whether you're new to volunteering or a veteran, offers of help are gratefully accepted.

To volunteer at ARF you must be at least 16 years old. A short orientation is mandatory and is held on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of every month. Once you've attended orientation and are comfortable with the work, you are free to choose any day of the week to volunteer. We especially need Sunday morning volunteers to assist with feeding and cleaning.

Volunteer work includes:

• Socializing & playing with the dogs
• Cleaning kennels and yards
• Washing dishes and doing laundry
• Keeping the adoption center tidy

If you are interested in doing community service please make sure your email states that clearly. Community service orientation will be held at a different time.

You must register for orientation by emailing Mindi Miller volunteer@arf-fresno.com. If you do not pre-register, you will not be allowed to participate in the orientation. We look forward to meeting you and making you a part of ARF.
