If might like to help promote RASKC's great work to help people and pets, consider helping to staff RASKC's table at one or more community events for at least two hours on the eastside and/or north King County this summer!
You would listen to people talk about their pets. And invite them to play a structured mini-game. Regardless of whether the participant succeeeds, you offer them a prize. If you are able to pass along a key talking point about RASKC, all the better.
You would staff the table with at least one other volunteer.
RASKC would provide you with training in advance of the event either in person or via Zoom.
RASKC seeks volunteers who are up for staffing a table at least for two hours, ideally longer, for any of the following events...

Mission Statement
To provide King County with sustainable, cost-effective animal services, which protect people and animals, while providing compassionate animal care. Our organization is built on the cornerstone values of compassion and service. We demonstrate this commitment in the countless hours spent by staff and our RASKC volunteers to save animals' lives at the shelter and in the field. By collaborating with community partners, we are able to expand our programs and resources to provide even greater value to our residents.
Description
RASKC is an agency of the King County government, based in Kent, WA with volunteer satellite locations at Kirkland Petco, Covington Petco, Tukwila Petco, and Reber Ranch (Kent), in addition to hundreds of foster volunteers' homes. Outstanding teamwork between staff and volunteers is the key to our success. RASKC cares for about 5,000 animals each year. We are an open-admission shelter with a save rate that exceeds 92%!
Last year more than 770 volunteers participated in over a dozen teams, including foster volunteers, dog walkers, dog-enrichment volunteers, Dog Kennel Specialists, Pet Publicists, community-outreach volunteers, Shelter Helpers, Vet Clinic volunteers, Cat Meet & Greet volunteers, the Early Morning Cat Crew, the Cat Area Stray Team (CAST), the barn-cat program,and the cat-care teams at four partner stores.
