Why You Should Volunteer
Every animal who arrives at Wellery carries a story — some abandoned, some mistreated, many simply needing a safe, steady place to land. Volunteers are the heart of that care.
They’re the reason our animals get clean spaces, full bellies, fresh walks, and the patient attention that helps them trust again. Wellery can only do this work because of people who show up with time, compassion and willing hands. Whether you’re caring for animals, supporting our team at events or jumping in wherever you’re needed, your contribution makes a real impact.
No matter your skills or schedule, there’s a place for you here — and every hour you give helps our sanctuary run smoothly and saves lives.
Ways You Can Help
Adoption Support & Animal Socialization
Spend time with our dogs to help them feel confident, loved, and ready for their forever families. Volunteers help with walking, playing, socializing, and introducing animals to potential adopters.
Community Events & Adoption Days
Support Wellery at adoption events, fundraisers, meet-and-greets, and local outreach. Volunteers help set up booths, talk to the public, distribute materials, and showcase adoptable animals.
Photography & Social Media Content Crew
Help capture the beauty and personality of our animals. Whether you love TikTok, Instagram Reels, or photography, your content helps families see the animals waiting for them.
School, Campus & Community Outreach
Help spread the word by visiting schools, clubs, campus groups, and local organizations. Great for students who want to help bring awareness and encourage service engagement.
Marketing & Creative Storytelling
From writing bios to creating flyers, graphics, or adoption campaigns — this team helps us share each animal’s story with the world and increase their chances of being adopted.
Partnerships, Fundraising & Sponsorships
Build relationships with local businesses, pet stores, churches, sororities/fraternities, and community organizations to help secure donations, sponsorships, supply drives, and adoption partnerships.
Our Community Partners & Supporters
We’re grateful for the local businesses, schools, organizations and community groups that help us share our mission and support the animals of Wellery Animal Sanctuary. Their generosity allows us to host adoption days, fundraisers, supply drives and outreach events that change lives.
