Put your passion for animals into action.

Want to Help Save Animals?

Volunteers play a crucial role in our mission, and there are numerous ways you can contribute. Whether it's guiding potential pet adopters, providing support during the adoption process, or assisting staff at our Loving Spay+Neuter Clinic, your love for animals can make a significant impact on saving lives!

Thank you for your interest in volunteering with the Richmond Animal League! At this time, we are unable to take on new volunteers due to limited capacity. However, we would love to keep you in mind for future opportunities! Please add yourself to our volunteer waitlist, and we’ll reach out as soon as space becomes available. Your support means the world to us, and we can’t wait to have you join our team when the time is right!

For those of you who want to get started immediately, there are several other incredible organizations in the greater Richmond area that are looking for volunteers. These include:

Fostering Saves Lives

Foster homes expand our physical space, allowing RAL to save more animals in need. Foster homes allow pets to decompress and socialize in a home environment, preparing them to find a best match with their new family.
