Volunteering
Volunteering at the Humane Society of Southern Wisconsin offers a rewarding opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of animals in need. Volunteers support a variety of tasks, from walking dogs and socializing cats to assisting with events and helping keep the facility clean and welcoming. It's a chance to give back to the community, develop new skills, and connect with fellow animal lovers—all while playing a vital role in helping pets find loving, forever homes.
