Special Event Volunteers

Special Event VolunteersJoin one of our special events teams!

There are many different special events going on throughout the year that help us raise funds for the animals at the OHS. We are looking for volunteers with an eclectic set of skills and interests to volunteer for our events. Whether this includes planning and committee work, "day-of" tasks, or setting-up and taking down, we need people to help in a variety of areas.

Commitment is required on the day of the event for a specific shift which is assigned in advance. Events are usually held on the weekend.

Special Event Volunteer Requirements:

  • Volunteers must be 18 years of age or older.
  • Volunteers are asked to commit regular involvement in OHS Special Events.
  • All Special Event Volunteers are required to attend a general orientation.

Please Note

We only recruit existing OHS volunteers for our events. We do not accept applications for people only interested in special events. If you are interested in other opportunities, please review the other volunteer programs available on our website for more information. If you are a fit for our available opportunities, you will be contacted to discuss the next steps.
