Volunteer
Volunteer with DARE
At DARE, volunteers are the heart of our mission, just as dachshunds are the heart of our rescue. Whether you’re passionate about pups, skilled in design, or have a knack for event planning, there’s a role for everyone in our community.
Volunteering with DARE is flexible and rewarding. Whether you want to contribute regularly or lend a hand occasionally, your time and talents can make a difference.
