Volunteer Program

Ten Lives Club could not operate without the countless volunteers who work tirelessly for the sole mission of saving as many homeless cats as possible. We welcome help from those who share our vision.

Much time and investment goes into training our new volunteers. Consider the amount of time you can contribute given your lifestyle and obligations. Also consider your talents, interests, and cat care experience when completing the volunteer submission. We have many volunteer opportunities working both directly with the cats and indirectly for the good of the cats. If uncertain how you can help, please call 716 646-5577 to explore available volunteer opportunities.

-You must be at least eighteen-years-old to volunteer at the McKinley Mall Adoption Center. This is a requirement issued by our liability insurance Company. Other volunteer opportunities may be available with Ten Lives Club for individuals under eighteen if accompanied by a parent.

-It's important for us to know your level of commitment. In fact, the well being of our cat and fellow co-workers rely on volunteers to give advance notice when unable to work a scheduled shift, or are no longer interested in volunteering.

-There are many opportunities to volunteer on a short term basis such as organizing, working at fundraisers, and newsletter mailings. Certain volunteer positions (especially those working directly with the cats) and store cashiers at the McKinley Mall Store require training and a higher level of commitment...

Please use the comment section on the volunteer submission form to tell us more about yourself! This helps us to find the right starting position for you in our organization.

ALSO

1. Please indicate the days and times you would be available, i.e. weekly or iif you need a flexible schedule such as helping with fund raisers as needed.

2. Please let us know if you are seeking community service hours only. Indicate the name of the organization, the number of hours required, your available days and times, and if your commitment needs to be completed by a certain date.

Volunteer inquiries are sometimes prioritized based on the immediate need positions and an individual's availability. Please be patient while we work to fill the priority positions first. This is to ensure the continual health and welfare of our felines..

Thank you!
