How to Volunteer with Rabbit Advocates

We usually hold virtual volunteer orientations once a month.
Our next Volunteer Orientation is May 17, 2026 @ 6PM.

For new potential volunteers:
➡️ Fill out the Volunteer Application form (purple button on the right)
➡️ Get approved
➡️ Attend our virtual Volunteer Orientation
➡️ Sign the required waivers

Any minor volunteering will need an adult (18+) to accompany with us. Both will need to fill out the Volunteer Application Form, and each person must create their own separate Volgistics account.     

We are currently working with our insurance provider to ensure that minor‑filled positions are properly supported within the organization. These roles are temporarily paused while we review requirements. We don’t have an update yet, but we expect more information next month and will email our volunteer list as soon as we know more.

Staff Volunteers

Come join us on the internal team! Looking to make a bigger impact on Rabbit Advocates? As a 100% volunteer organization, we rely on volunteers to fill the roles most other nonprofit rescues hire on as staff. Unlike full-time staff positions, these roles are broken down into smaller chunks of responsibilities so they can be done more manageably in your free time. Then the department’s Manager and Senior Manager coordinate the team so they work coherently as a group. 

You’ll need to apply for the position you’d like on the right and be interviewed to see if you are a good fit for the role. Don’t be intimidated by the process - no resume or cover letter are required! Just fill out the form and we’ll contact you for an interview to see if you’ll be a good fit with the team. 

Don’t think you meet 100% of the requirements for a position? We recommend applying anyways! Volunteering at Rabbit Advocates is a great place to build on skills you’re starting to invest in but need time and experience to flourish.
