Help Dogtown South Africa with 10 volunteers for reading and interacting with our doggies and cats
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
Do you love reading? Or would you like to build on your reading skills? Well, we have the perfect solution! Bring along your favourite book and come spend some time with our cats and dogs. Reading to animals at a shelter can give them some much needed one-on-one time with a companion in a calm, non-stressful setting. Guaranteed satisfaction for everyone! Open to volunteers 14 and up.

Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
- 6. Avoid wearing expensive jewellery: it could get damaged, lost or stolen.
- 7. Ask, ask, ask! If you’re worried about something or concerned about your safety in a certain situation, ask the person in charge.
