We charge a one-time administrative fee to help us cover the cost of our volunteer program. As long as you remain an active volunteer, one fee will cover everything! Fees are as follows:

  • Students $20.00
  • Adults $35.00
  • Seniors 60 and over $20.00
  • Foster Care Volunteers - waived fee

All volunteers must be at least 14 years of age and be able to make a 3 month committment. Any volunteers younger than 16 must be accompanied by a parent/guardian at all times while volunteering. We cannot make exceptions to this policy.

Please note: The Austin Humane Society has a separate program for those needing court-ordered community service hours. Please email our Volunteer Coordinator for more information.
