WearWoof is the region's only animal welfare organization that combines fashion and the mission to save the lives of homeless animals!
Did you know that 9,000 homeless dogs and cats will die each day in American animal shelters, simply because no one adopted them? Locally, an estimated 20,000 dogs, cats, kittens and puppies will not make it out of our shelters alive this year.
At WearWoof, our mission is to end pet homelessness in Western PA by helping our shelters and rescues to adopt out more animals, offer free and low-cost spay/neuter programs, deal with medical emergencies and educate the community about pet homelessness.
We raise money for these important programs through our beautiful women's resale boutique, The WearWoof Shop, and through fun, unique parties, all of which requires clear, concise, written communication.
WearWoof needs volunteer copywriters to help the store with a variety of projects on an ongoing basis. Some responsibilities might include:
* To write original copy for a wide range of styles, including newsletters, press releases, reports, promotional material and the website
* To fulfil the brief requirements for each project
* To research and gather news from internal and external sources to create compelling copy
* To conduct research to ensure information published in materials is accurate and fulfils brief requirements
* To edit own and others’ work for style, accuracy and length.More opportunities with WearWoof, Inc.

Mission Statement
WearWoof’s Mission is to establish Pittsburgh as the Middle Atlantic region’s most pet-friendly city by supporting the work of like-minded shelters, rescues and organizations in ending pet homelessness, providing resources and education for responsible pet ownership, and aiding the efforts of small, volunteer based local rescues through the consolidation of information, resources and support.
Description
WearWoof is not a shelter or rescue. We are an animal welfare organization that operates a women’s resale shop. Our goal is to support the work of approved shelters and rescues whose mission is aligned with ours. Although we support the efforts Pittsburgh area Shelter and Rescue Partners of all sizes, we are especially attentive to the needs of smaller rescues and shelters who are big on heart but low on resources. Proceeds from sales at the shop, as well as our other fundraising activities, are directed toward our Shelter and Rescue Partners. These Partners are local groups and organizations that must undergo an application and vetting process before being approved to receive WearWoof funding and support.
