Volunteers are the heart and soul of Helping Paws.  As a nonprofit organization, we rely on our volunteers to realize our mission: to further the independence of individuals with physical disabilities through the use of service dogs.

Volunteering with Helping Paws offers you a variety of rewarding opportunities. While helping people achieve their independence you’ll be celebrating the human/animal bond.

The benefits of volunteering extend far beyond the good feeling you get from helping others, allowing you to:

• Contribute significantly to the quality of people’s lives
• Use your talent and skills
• Learn and use new skills and talents
• Work flexible hours to suit your needs
• Meet new and interesting people
• Make a difference in someone else’s life
• Keep active
• Start a tradition – come by yourself, come with your family, or come with a friend or two
• Take on a new challenge
• Share your enthusiasm for a cause or belief
• Be a valued part of a team
• Have fun!
