THE SPCA VOLUNTEER PROGRAM’S MISSION
Help the animal first and foremost
Introduction
Objective
At the Canadian SPCA, volunteers’ contributions are very important for the operations of the shelter. Their support and devotion are crucial in helping the SPCA accomplish its mission. They provide the additional resources necessary for us to continue to expand our services, which exceed the traditional services offered by an animal shelter. Combined, the Montreal and Laval branches of the Canadian SPCA are the largest shelter in North America. The Canadian SPCA also has one of the lowest rates of euthanasia in North America (varying from 15 to 20%). Thanks to the presence of volunteers, we continue to reduce our rate of euthanasia and save more lives.
SPCA Volunteer Program Description
All daily necessities that are essential to the shelter’s operations - such as general shelter maintenance, animal care, administration, clientele service, inspection and ambulances - are carried out by hired staff. However, the Canadian SPCA goes beyond these standard services, and thanks to the volunteers’ contributions, can expand its actions to help animals.
Beyond food and a clean cage, our animals have needs that are not attended to by our staff. They need us to help them find a good home, to find their owner if they are lost or to find a temporary home. It is because of these needs that the SPCA Volunteer Program was established.
Profile of SPCA Volunteer
The Canadian SPCA is seeking individuals who want to give their time to help the animals, and involve themselves with all their heart. These special people are very concerned to improve the environment for animals in our society and to help the Canadian SPCA save more lives.
The motivation of their involvement… HELP THE ANIMAL FIRST AND FOREMOST!
