The Biographer is a very important job within our Center. The more information that we can supply to an adopter about our animals’ personalities, the more adopters will be drawn to our Center and adopt. This will help us save more lives! The Biographers interact with the animals themselves, or uses information provided from other volunteers, and writes an animal profile that potential adopters will read on our website, PetFinder, or Facebook. Each animal is an individual and, by sharing and celebrating their unique traits and personal stories, Biographers help adopters identify and connect with them. This role/assignment is also one of the few that can be done from home (provided you've already interacted with the animal or gathered information from other volunteers).

Mission Statement
Wake County Animal Center is determined to make a difference for the animals and citizens of Wake County through adoption, education, enforcement and community partnership.
Description
The Wake County Animal Center strives to create a humane community for the pets and people that live here. Together, with community partners, we treat and re-home thousands of homeless animals every year.
The Volunteer Program is an integral part of the Wake County Animal Center and it enables us to make a difference in the lives of tens of thousands of lost or homeless animals each year. We could not exist without the commitment and expertise of each of our volunteers and we're always looking for responsible and enthusiastic animal-lovers to join our group of dedicated and compassionate volunteers.
We offer a variety of roles and assignments, so no matter your preference - working with animals, working with people, or working by yourself - you have a way to impact the animals in our care.
Work with animals - walking, cuddling, cleaning, training, enrichment, grooming, taking pictures, writing biographies and more!
Work with people - guiding visitors, showcasing adoptable animals, marketing, fundraising, attending off-site events and more!
Work independently - data entry, housekeeping, laundry and more!
You can volunteer in many different activities or become an expert in one particular role. All it takes is some free time, a little bit of training and a natural desire for helping others!
