Project Impact, a program of Student HOTC, provides summer opportunities for youth volunteers. If you would like to donate to HOTC to help support more free community-minded volunteer events and programs - like these special summer volunteer pop-ups - click here.
Come together (or 6 ft apart) to help animals from the Thomasville-Thomas County Humane Society at our local Dog Park. You will walk, play and socialize with the animals to help keep them happy while they wait for thier furever homes. You are encouraged to bring pet toys, and pet food to donate. Volunteers will receive a take-home kit, HOTC t-shirt, and a Live Better pedometer to track their physical activity while volunteering. Don't forget to log your steps to be entered into a drawing for Disney Park Hopper Passes!
Ages 12 to adult. Under 12 if accompanied by an adult (18+). This opportunity is limited to 8 participants.
This is a no-frills service opportunity. Please bring anything you will need to be comfortable (hat, water, sunscreen, etc.), wear appropriate attire and closed-toe shoes.
