Ljnradio: Volunteering At

Based in Utah, Best Friends Animal Society is an animal welfare organization that helped pioneer the no-kill movement. The organization also focuses on animal adoption and spaying and neutering, and offers a variety of locally based animal programs. As a large organization, Best Friends also has many volunteering opportunities – from marketing and technology to animal care. LJNRadio’s Jenna Connour is joined by Patty Hegwood, director of visitor and volunteer engagement for Best Friends, to discuss the organization’s mission and volunteer opportunities. If you're unemployed and looking to keep your skills sharp and resume full - you'll need to volunteer. Of course, you might be employed, but looking to give back or maybe you're a retiree trying to stay involved. Whatever your situation is, Volunteering At will take the listener into the organizations who are looking for volunteers!
