Join the Mack-Pack

volunteer5 It is because of people like you that are committed to the betterment of our local animal community that make our mission at Mackenzie’s possible and for that we are forever grateful.

Mackenzie’s Animal Sanctuary is always in need of volunteers. Volunteering can be very rewarding and a great way to meet new people, spend time with friends and family and of course, help the dogs in here at the sanctuary.

There are many different volunteer opportunities available at MAS:

Helping the dogs at the sanctuary: walking, training, feeding, grooming, reading, playing, etc.
Educational/community outreach events
Meet and Greets: We have Meet and Greets all over West Michigan!
Fundraisers
Distributing and collecting donation boxes

Most of these types of volunteer opportunities only require one training session. Training sessions are available Tuesday through Saturday.
