Can you spare a little time?

We need volunteers who can help us at the shelter. We are very short of help and need people who can help us with animal care. Duties include 'dishes' (litter pans and food/water bowl scrubbing), laundry, cat cages cleaned, puppy pens cleaned, dogs walked... but mostly we need help with dishes and the cats... we have over 130 cats in shelter right now.

Donations and volunteers are always needed to continue this invaluable work.  ARNO receives no major funding, existing entirely on your donations.  Please consider helping in any way you can.  Help us rescue them one by one until there are none left homeless, hungry and unloved on the streets of New Orleans and surrounding areas.

Please post to your friends and associates who care about animals. ARNO's success has always been, and continues to be, dependent upon volunteers. We need more local volunteers to keep the operation running. ARNO has been blessed with a successful outreach for out-of-state volunteers but there are times when we must call upon our local folks. I know locals are all busy with your own rescues, rebuilding your homes, your businesses, and trying to get back to financial stability. But please consider coming to help us at the shelter... even one day a week for a few hours.

If you know high school students who love animals, this is a perfect opportunity to put in community service hours, and a wonderful opportunity to add a bright spot to rescued animals lives.

The shelter is located at 271 Plauche St., New Orleans 70123; in the Elmwood business park area off Edwards Ave. Robin, ARNO Shelter Director/Rescue Coordinator, can be reached at 504.913.2328. You don't have to make an appointment to help... find yourself with a couple of hours to give? Come to our triage shelter. We welcome everyone who wants to help! You can let us know when you can come by signing up online at http://animalrescueneworleans.org/volunteer.html and even tell us what duties you prefer.
