Volunteer Role:

  • Greet and thank the customers of the Gaming Centre.
  • Answer any inquiries regarding the Gaming Centre and our organization.
  • Light cleaning.
  • Promote how customer contributions assist our furry friends in need, in their local community.

Supervision and Support

As a volunteer, you will be supported by the Development Department staff.
