Fostering Saves Lives
Foster homes expand our physical space, allowing RAL to save more animals in need. Foster homes allow pets to decompress and socialize in a home environment, preparing them to find a best match with their new family.
Specialized Volunteer Positions
Some volunteer roles require a specific skill set, schedule, or focus — and that’s where this section comes in. Here, you’ll find opportunities for volunteers who want to take on unique roles that support RAL in targeted ways. These positions may have additional training or responsibilities, but they’re all about helping the mission in meaningful, hands-on ways.
