OPEN POSITION – VOLUNTEER SCHEDULER

ONGOING POSITIONS

Events Helpers – We put on several major events each year. These special events require volunteers to move the materials from storage to the event site, setup of the events, and staffing. You might do things like take admission tickets, sell raffle tickets, or help with food. No experience is necessary, you will be trained as needed.

Transportation. Greyhounds often need to be transported from one place to another. This may be from their foster home to an event or to the veterinary appointment. All that is needed is your vehicle, some training in handling a Greyhound safely and a good driving record! We can use help in many areas of Portland, Salem and Eugene.  

Fundraising. Our Fundraising Committee is looking for new volunteers with experience and interest in donor development, grant writing, corporate sponsorships, event planning or advertising. 

Placement Volunteers – Remember the person who introduced you to your first greyhound and provided you support? If you have some greyhound experience, you can share that with others as they embark on greyhound adoption. Let us know if you would like to learn more about one of the most critical and most rewarding volunteering jobs: introducing greyhounds to their forever homes. Typically work in a geographic area near you.
