Group & Corporate Volunteering

Abandoned Pet Rescue offers a hands-on, unforgettable volunteer opportunity for groups and company teams.

GROUP & CORPORATE VOLUNTEERING

This team building experience is available for adults
with a group minimum of 10 people and we can accommodate up to 25 people.
For youth groups, school groups or nonprofit groups,
please contact us at volunteer@abandonedpetrescue.org

The group volunteer day can be scheduled for
most weekdays from 12-2pm or 2-4p.m.
Weekends are not possible due to the volume of visitors coming to the shelter.

ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVES

The day of service includes learning about our no-kill animal shelter plus
helping with cleaning cat rooms and dog kennels, bathing dogs,
assisting with shelter chores, and providing cat and dog enrichment.
Special projects, such as renovation projects, painting,
are often needed and can be discussed.

Light snacks and drinks are included.

To participate, please click to the button below to complete the application and a
team member will contact you. Once your day of service is confirmed,
we kindly request a donation of $500 to accommodate your group/team,
which will go towards the care of the cats and dogs.

GROUP VOLUNTEER APPLICATION

THE EXTRA MILE

To make the greatest impact for both our animals and your team,
we encourage your group to learn more about our no-kill animal shelter and
please consider hosting a supply drive from our wishlist.

This International Women’s Day, Mary Ann is hoping This International Women’s Day, Mary Ann is hoping you notice her in her pretty pink bow 🎀 so she can find her forever home after 477 days of waiting at our shelter. 💝

Mary Ann is a 3-year-old, 50-pound Pit Bull Terrier with a heart as big as her smile. She’s one of the most loving and sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet—she lives for hugs, belly rubs, and snuggles. 💕🐶

Though she may be shy at first, it doesn’t take long (just a few treats!) before she’s laying her head in your lap and soaking up your affection. Mary Ann has even been crowned Miss Canine of APR by local pageant queen Tiffany Coquis, Miss Lauderdale-by-the-Sea @tiffanycoquis 👑 💖

With her soulful eyes and sweet face, she’s often compared to the famous rescue pup Miss Peaches @famousmisspeaches but she stays humble, dreaming only of a forever home. 🏡💭

Mary Ann is potty trained, walks beautifully on a leash, and strikes a perfect balance between playful and laid-back. She’s friendly with other dogs on walks but would love to be your one-and-only at home, soaking up all the love and attention. 💗

She’s spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to be your best friend. If you’re ready for endless hugs and unconditional love, apply to adopt Mary Ann at www.AbandonedPetRescue.org. 🩵🩷 Abandoned Pet Rescue is a no-kill animal shelter in Fort Lauderdale, FL 🌴🐾

Starting off your Sunday with some good news - you Starting off your Sunday with some good news - your support enabled Abandoned Pet Rescue to quickly provide compassion and veterinary care plus find wonderful home for sweet senior Julio! 😍 Julio, who was found abandoned in Miami, spent his nights at our shelter crying for his former family. ❤️‍🩹❤️

Julio, now Bentley, has been adopted and his new family fell in love with him, even from far away as they were out of town and spoke to our adoption coordinator. 🙏🏼 Watch this reel to see the full story. 🥰

This month, your donation is doubled up to $30,000 as APR celebrates its 30th Anniversary! 🎂💕 The cost of saving lives continues to increase as the expense of pet food, medicine and daily operations rise. ⬆️❣️

If you can’t adopt, please consider making a tax-deductible donation to help the 150 animals in our care. See links in bio and visit our website abandonedpetrescue.org for more information 🩵🩷 Abandoned Pet Rescue is a no-kill animal shelter located in Fort Lauderdale, FL. 🌴🐾

We try not to judge, but our adoptable cat Rosalin We try not to judge, but our adoptable cat Rosaline might! 😹👩‍⚖️ This Caturday, meet Rosaline, a lovely diluted calico who’s come a long way from her days on the street. 🥀🌹

When she was first rescued, she was scared and unsure of people but day by day, she’s learning that human companionship can be pretty great. Rosaline has started to enjoy being pet and will lean in for attention once she feels at ease. She’s also discovered her love for playtime, especially when a wand toy is involved She’ll happily chase and pounce with surprising enthusiasm. 🧶😸

Rosaline is still building her confidence, so she’ll thrive in a calm, patient home where she can continue to feel safe and loved. With the right person, she’s ready to keep growing into the affectionate, playful cat she’s meant to be. 💗😻

To meet Rosaline please fill out an adoption application at abandonedpetrescue.org! 🩵🩷 Rosaline is vaccinated, spayed, microchipped and ready for adoption at Abandoned Pet Rescue - a no-kill shelter in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. 🌴🐾
