Sammy’s Hope Animal Welfare & Adoption Center is a Sayreville, New Jersey non-profit, all-volunteer organization whose mission is to care for homeless animals, socialize them, and provide for their medical needs while finding them loving, forever homes. This private shelter, whose only source of funding is donations and adoption fees, has been operating since February of 2015 in a facility co-located with the Sayrebrook Animal Hospital.
Sammy’s Hope has been able to stay afloat during the Covid pandemic by operating as appointment-only for visiting the animals and for approved adoptions. But it’s back on a mostly regular schedule, open to the public, and once again needs volunteers (who love animals!) to join their volunteer team!
Volunteer requirements are:
- Minimum 18 years of age
- Have health insurance coverage
- Can commit to a 2-3 hour shift on the same day and time each week
- To work with dogs: able to handle and walk dogs weighing 35+ pounds, and work in a kennel environment
- To work with cats: comfortavble with cats and kittens, and can work a midday “socialization” and play shift
