MSPCA-Angell Volunteer Philosophy
Volunteers are an integral pillar of the MSPCA team and are critical to the success of our mission to protect animals, relieve their suffering, advance their health and welfare, prevent cruelty, and work for a just and compassionate society. Through their unique talents, knowledge, and care volunteers improve the lives of the animals we encounter through our programs and in our communities. Together, staff and volunteers act as positive role models as we strive to provide an integrated culture of kindness and support for the animals in our community and the people that love them.
Are you or your child under 16 years of age? Check out our volunteer opportunities through our Humane Education programs.
Current volunteer opportunities for those ages 16+ are listed below. Please read over the Job Descriptions for open positions as they outline the duties of the particular volunteer role. Apply to the particular position if it aligns with your interests. We will open and close volunteer position listings as our needs change.
Looking for group opportunities? The availability of on-property tasks for groups is limited. We encourage school groups and civic organizations to hold a supply drive benefiting our Community Outreach pet food pantry. These are hugely helpful! Our most common needs are wet and dry cat food, wet and dry dog food, dog and cat toys, and cat litter. If your corporate group is interested in an on-property group volunteer opportunity in exchange for a monetary donation to MSPCA-Angell, please visit our Corporate Volunteer Program page for more information.
Are you a Veterinarian or Veterinary Technician? We are looking for MA licensed Veterinarians and Veterinary Technicians with 2 or more years experience to volunteer at our MSPCA -Angell Boston Community Clinic. Interested in learning more? Email bostonvolunteer@mspca.org.
