Medina County Society For The Prevention Of Cruelty To Animals




Now is an excellent time to become a volunteer for the Medina County SPCA!


 

We currently have many opportunities for volunteers.  There is something for everyone, whether you have a large or small amount of time to give.  You can volunteer from home, from your car, or at our Fundraising Events.  You choose the location and the times!  Simply read the brief descriptions below to find your area of interest and contact us to learn how you can get started!

 

  

FOSTER HOME

Do "purrs", "wags" or "puppy kisses" make your day? Then consider being a cat or dog foster home. We NEED caring, responsible pet lovers to join our foster home team by opening their homes and their hearts. Foster homes provide the love, security and daily care a rescued animal needs. Everything else is provided to you. For additional information, leave a message at 330-723-7722 box #7.

EVENT COORDINATORS

Volunteers are needed to help with the promotion, coordinating, and planning of community events. This is an excellent opportunity for anyone who enjoys working with people and being creative.  Email volunteer@medinacountyspca.com

PROMOTERS

Do you ever run errands? Do you have a bulletin board at work? Then you can help promote the SPCA! We need volunteers to put up flyers on community bulletin boards. We provide the flyers and you hang them at your convenience while you are out or at work. The perfect way for busy people to help! Email volunteer@medinacountyspca.com

PHONE WORK

Do you like to talk on the phone? Volunteers are needed to retrieve voice mail messages from various phone lines, return calls and direct messages to the appropriate people. We operate on a voice mail phone system. We receive a great deal of messages on these lines and help is needed every day of the week. This is done from the convenience of your home and within your daily schedule. Email volunteer@medinacountyspca.com to help.

HUMANE EDUCATION

Are you good with kids? Are you good at speaking in front of others? Then we NEED you! We need volunteers to make presentations to schools, youth groups and community groups. We have a Fun Facts activity book for pre-school and school age children. Through education, we can promote the proper care of animals and the importance of responsible pet ownership. If you are able to help, Email volunteer@medinacountyspca.com

FUNDRAISING

The Medina County SPCA receives no federal or state funding, so our fundraising events are a crucial part of the financing we need to operate. Volunteers are needed to make phone calls to members for event staffing, to contact merchants for donations, sell tickets, bake, cover a shift at an event, hand out literature and chair an event. New faces and ideas are needed. Email volunteer@medinacountyspca.com

RECYCLE

Organize an aluminum can recycling event to benefit the animals. The SPCA profits from cans dropped off at the Medina City Garage (781 West Smith Rd). Collected Saturdays from 10am-noon. Ask family, friends and neighbors to help. Clubs and groups add the SPCA as one of your community service projects. Other aluminum, brass and copper are collected separately. Talk to Bob on Saturdays 10am-noon for details.
