Level 1 Volunteer Orientation

We’re so happy you’re here! We need your help, and we look forward to saving lives with you.

Memphis Animal Services offer three levels of volunteering, and by watching this video, you complete the first step toward becoming a Level 1 Volunteer!

Level 1:
- First step for all new volunteers
- Online orientation makes it very easy to get started from the comfort of your home anytime
- Level 1 volunteers don’t do direct animal handling
- Open to volunteers under 18

You can choose to progress to Level 2 if you want direct animal handling, or stay at Level 1 forever!

Ready to get started as a Level 1 volunteer? Complete two easy steps:

1. Watch this online orientation video.
2. Fill out our online application: https://app.betterimpact.com/Applicat...
Once your application is approved (usually within 24 hours), you’ll receive an email with instructions. After that, you can come to the shelter and start volunteering!
