Volunteer: Pick up Truck!

Frequently we are offered donations of furniture, tables, beds and or mattresses  that our clients could really use!  Our biggest obstacle is not having the right vehicle or muscle to move  or these items!  We are looking for someone with a pick up truck or something along those lines and a couple strong friends to help us meet these needs! This would not be a scheduled volunteer opportunity but one where we contact you when we have a match, a donor with an item and a client with a need!  Please contact Ruth at 585-368-2265, or rrappaportkristal@ywcarochester.org for additional information!

Thanks!

Volunteer: Foster Caregivers for Dogs

Can you give a temporary home for a dog in need? One of our adoptable dogs would like to be your companion for a little while! Our shelter will set you up with food and equipment. Our dogs receive medical care from our shelter clinic. You provide a place to stay, daily care and exercise, and maybe some treats? We work around your schedule. The dogs are promoted for adoption through our website and social media.  Many dogs have found homes quickly after a brief stay in a foster home. This is a great way for folks who can't have a "permanent" pet to help a dog in need.
