Volunteering


Local Onsite Help:

We can always use extra help around the shelter! We invite you to come by anytime during business hours and volunteer. Various tasks you can help out with could be any of the following:

  • Walking/Playing with the dogs - they need to get out and get some fresh air and fun! It is not only good for the human spirit but also the canine spirit!

  • Petting/Playing with the cats - our cats need attention and play time, it will help them with social skills and improve the quality of life for them!

  • Answering Phones, Making Copies, Getting things ready for events and other various office tasks - some days you just can't "get it all done" and that is where your help is so truly appreciated!

  • Bathing / Grooming- Our animals love the one on one attention and we love the results that are so helpful to the adoption process!

  • Helping with various events through out the community such as our yard sale weekends, Petsmart Adoption Weekends, Parades etc. - This is a great way to get out there and support your community shelter, you get to meet new people from all over the area and maybe even venture to some new locations.

  • Odd Jobs - occasionally we need an odd job done around our shelter, this is where you come in - like to paint? do you dabble in carpentry and remodeling work? do you landscape? maybe you would love to help us out with our plans for our new building? do you have the means to help transport some of our animals to new homes/rescues through out the state or other locations? if so we would love to have you help when the need arises!

Photo Help:

We do have a regular photo coordinator now. In an effort to help her and to get more exposure for our animals we are asking anyone with good photography skills who would like to help with animal photos to contact us! You can call our shelter (662) 841-6500 or email us at info@tupeloleehumane.org This is a very valuable donation of your time to us - the possibility for increased adoption and less time in our shelter is VERY beneficial to our animals.

Petsmart Weekends:

The Humane Society is currently looking for volunteers to help out with our Petsmart adoption events. We are at Petsmart every Saturday from 10am-4pm. This is broken into two shifts 10am-1pm and 1pm-4pm. Even if you cannot come for an entire three hour shift that is fine ANY amount of your time is very appreciated. If you are an animal lover there is nothing about the Petsmart adoption event that you will not like. The main tasks for the volunteers is making sure the puppies and kittens are comfortable (walking the puppies around if they get restless and making sure everyone has plenty of water in their bowls) and getting the word out to the public about our precious furry friends who are looking for good homes.

If you are interested (or have ANY questions and/or concerns about volunteering in general) please email me! I will send you a personal email letting you know all of the details about the Petsmart event and answer any questions or concerns that you have.

Volunteering for the Humane Society is a very fun and rewarding thing to do. I recommend that everyone try it at least once :o)
We also welcome family volunteering and civic group support!

As always our volunteers are Greatly Appreciated; none of our events would be possible without your help.

Thanks so much!
