Opportunity Details
Ace of Hearts Dog Adoption Event
QUICK OVERVIEW
We are having an Adoption Event Saturday, October 28th at the Petco in West Hollywood 1-6 PM.
MISSION
We are a 501c-3 dog rescue foundation dedicated to rescuing dogs, the day they are to be euthanized, from various Los Angeles shelters and placing them in loving homes. We do NOT take dogs in ... we rescue only from shelters. The Ace of Hearts Foundation is in memory of "Ace", a wonderful American Bull dog who was rescued from death, and touched the lives of many! (Especially founder Kari Whitman!) We rescue all breeds...and don't discriminate against any!
VOLUNTEER ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES
- Need at least 30+ volunteers at the event
- Need at least 5 transporters (to get pups to/from the events and transport food to the dogs)
- Need at least 8 homemade food chefs
Items Needed at the Event
- 2 Cases of bottled water
- 2 Packs of ice (I know it's a little chilly right now!)
Transports Needed
Not all of our fosters can make it to our event, so we ask for a little extra help from other volunteers to help get them to get the supplies we need. Let us know which dogs you can take, some are close to each other! You can come around 3:30 pm to 5 pm to pick up the supplies.
Doggie Chefs
If you are interested in being one of our doggie chefs. Here are the recipes we use.
*dog food can be dropped off between 1-4 PM*
We need LOTS of homemade food for all of our dogs, so let us know if you can help out and we can provide you with some handy-dandy dog food recipes (:
