• Parma Animal Shelter Junior Volunteer Application, Agreement and Waiver

    Junior Volunteers are between the ages of 15 and 17 years of age and do not have contact with animals unless permission is granted via Waiver and Release Form, which would allow them to hold non-aggressive cats. You must be able to volunteer on the same day, on the same shift on a weekly basis. The Junior Volunteer program cannot be used for court-ordered, community and/or school service hours. The Parma Animal Shelter is completely operated by volunteers. Our mission is to help lost, homeless and abandoned animals found in the City of Parma. Our goal is to reunite lost animals with their humans and to find good homes for those we shelter.
