Help animals find homes — from home
You can positively impact the lives of animals alongside Best Friends staff at our sanctuary and lifesaving centers, without ever leaving home.
As a member of the National Operations Volunteers and Ambassadors (NOVA) program team, you'll volunteer to lend a virtual hand in real time to Best Friends' lifesaving centers, working to help animals find homes (and stay in homes) from anywhere you have a secure internet connection.
What to expect as a NOVA volunteer
You’ll be supporting Best Friends’ work in our lifesaving centers and at our sanctuary, all remotely from a computer.
