Ages: 14 – 17
Teen Club
Program Overview
The Charleston Animal Society generally requires all volunteers to be 18 of age or older. However, we are excited to be able to extend an opportunity to teenagers interested in volunteering before the age of 18! We have created a program to educate highly motivated and mature students on all the ins and outs of volunteering at the shelter. After completing this program successfully, students will be able to take on the important responsibility of working with shelter animals unaccompanied by a parent or guardians.
