Volunteer Application

Friends of Homeless Animals Volunteer Application

www.FohaRI.org

Of course, we are always looking to increase our foster homes, but we recognize that there are times when fostering is not an option, but the willingness to help the dogs is still there. We have many opportunities for volunteers that are unable to foster at this time. If you live in the New England area and would like to help, please complete our volunteer application.

If you have experience in another area that you think can benefit the rescue, please send an email to friendsoha@yahoo.com. Please put VOLUNTEER in the subject and then tell us a little about yourself and approximately how many hours a week you can devote to the dogs.

**Friends of Homeless Animals does not have a physical shelter. We are a foster home based organization. At this time, we are unable to assist with requests for Community Service fulfillments.**
