OVERVIEW & ADDITIONAL NOTES

Beloveds Foundation needs assistance with managing the volunteers for our organization. We have largely three types of volunteers.

  • Event Support - occasional support for our fundraising, donation drive and other events
  • Distribution - pick up and drop off donations, which usually includes a larger vehicle and ability to lift up to 30lbs
  • Donation Sorting/Collection - collecting donations from the community and working with a Distribution volunteer to collect the items or a sorting specialist that will take the donated items and organize them for our inventory system

These roles will be working closely with the Executive Director and Event Coordinator to ensure we have appropriate presence at events, with volunteers who want to engage with our sponsors/attendees. Our events can be varying from informational/promotional, to adoption events for local rescues or fundraising events so making sure we have the appropriate volunteers to help fulfill the needs is important. This will also require strong organizational skills and some people skills to help encourage volunteers to keep up their communication with Beloveds regarding their restrictions, availability and preferences.

About Beloveds Animal Rescue Relief Foundation

Location:

5218 Fauntleroy Way SW, Unit #4, Seattle, WA 98136, US

Mission Statement

We collect pet supplies from the community, businesses and distributors, then provide these donations directly to pet rescues, shelters, food banks, community outreach groups and feral cat colony caretakers, depending on urgency of need and specialty of service. This allows the pet organizations to focus on their animals clients, paying for medical needs, transportation and other urgent services.

Description

Beloveds Foundation was started to help local nonprofit pet organizations, with one of their most critical needs besides money and that is supplies. Millions of dollars worth of pet supplies are donated to generalized donation centers like Goodwill, which is great but we need to make sure these supplies get to the pet organizations that need them the most. Our focus is to collect donated pet supplies from the community, businesses and nonprofit pet organizations, then get them to the rescues, outreach programs so that they can focus on the animals. Through our services we are able to provide hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of critical supplies. In example, one of the biggest challenges to retraining fosters is the cost of supplies which many rescues cannot afford. Beloveds provides these fosters with litter, food, beds, gates and other items so that even if they are low income, they can help to support these organizations and save lives.
