MVP Volunteers
Volunteers are an important part of our community and enable animal organisations like the SPCA to give the animals the exposure and care they deserve. There are many ways to volunteer, whether that is indirectly, by lending your skills and behind-the-scenes support, or directly, with a more hands-on role, such as fostering or dog walking.
We shine a light on a few of our volunteers to find out what drives them to give back.
Athena
Why I volunteer:
Spending time with animals helps me relax. However, I cannot keep a pet due to my apartment regulations. I also like talking to people. That’s why I volunteered to be a greeter at Tsing Yi Centre. Witnessing animals being adopted is a great joy. Their barking and meowing always show reluctance to part while they are ready to go home!
Della
Why I volunteer:
Little animals are our best companions. However, family issues don’t allow me to keep a pet at home. Being a volunteer lets me have opportunities to interact with them. And I’m glad that I can be a part of helping them get a better life.
Kenneth
Why I volunteer:
I love taking photos of portraits, events, and pets as photographs capture priceless moments of happiness. Additionally, I have a particular love for dogs and cats, and spending time with them is one of my greatest joys.
Terence
Why I volunteer:
Animals are the most vulnerable group in human society, they don’t know how to ask for help even when they have suffered, that is why I joined the SPCA as a volunteer in 2013. Walking dogs can help them adapt to the human world, so that their chance of being homed can increase. My wish is that every animal can find their home sweet home.
