If you have an interest in raising awareness, advancing the wellbeing of animals, helping people and like working from the comfort of your own home, we would love to hear from you!

We have project work in marketing/graphic design, outreach/resource help, and fundraising. We are always looking for people who have specialized skills and experience in these areas but prior experience is not a requirement.

 

Don't see your skillset listed, but would still like to help?  If you have a passion for helping animals, we would love to talk with you!  Reach out to volunteers@friendsofmadacc.org or fill out our volunteer form, and let us know how you think you can help!

By volunteering your time and skills to FoM initiatives, you'll help families and their pets receive veterinary and pet supply resources in the community; enrich the lives of animals at MADACC, increase the number of adoptions from MADACC, and provide free spay and neuter solutions for animals in Milwaukee County.

Friends of MADACC offers many opportunities to get contribute, including hands-on volunteering and board positions.  Learn more about our established opportunities below - but feel free to reach out directly if you think you have a skill set that we could use!
