Volunteer Opportunities
Atlanta Humane Society
Our largest fundraising event of the year, Bow Wow Brunch, is coming up on Sunday, April 30, 2023, and we have a great need for volunteers at this event. The various volunteer opportunities available during Bow Wow Brunch include set-up and unloading, puppy handlers, ballroom greeters and helping with the children’s experience, bid spotters helping during our live auction, selling Golden Raffle tickets, and clean up.

Another event we would love to have volunteers help out during is our monthly Puppy Yoga that we host at our new campus, the Arthur M. Blank Family Animal Center. We aren’t hosting Puppy Yoga in April because of Bow Wow Brunch, but our next Puppy Yoga will be during the week of May 15th (exact date to be announced soon). We typically need 3 volunteers from 5:30-8:30pm for Puppy Yoga to help with set up and sanitization of the floors for puppies, assist at check-in table/collect donations, wrangle puppies during the yoga class and clean up messes when they occur, and help with event breakdown.
