PetSmart Volunteers
What They Do
We partner with PetSmart in Muncie to house our adoptable cats and kittens. During their stay, these cats have our dedicated volunteers to care for them everyday. Our volunteers clean out the cages, disinfect all surfaces, freshen the litter boxes, provide fresh food and water, and most importantly give loving attention to the cats.
All of the supplies are provided and each volunteer goes through onsite training. Volunteers come once a week for about two hours.

Technology and Social Media Volunteers
Help with Technology and Social Outreach
Our website and newsletter keep our donors, adopters and the community informed about our goals and achievements. We post news and photos to let our donors know how we are doing. AFA is developing more online outreach and invites those who are tech-savvy to join our team.
Petfinder
Volunteers help us keep our Petfinder listings up to date. We add new kitties as they are ready for adoption, and we remove them from Petfinder when they find their forever homes. Volunteers also respond to potential adopters to help them connect with just the right cat.
We have a lively Facebook presence that keep us connected to the community. Facebook posts help us promote adoptions and important animal rescue information.
Website
The AFA website has just received a great new facelift with a new design and great functionality. Volunteers help us keep it up to date with event listings and photos.

Fundraising Volunteers
What They Do
AFA survives by the generosity of its donors. There is no physical location other than the PetSmart adoption center in Muncie. All volunteers are unpaid, giving generously of their time and talents. Most of our donors have given monthly or quarterly for years. We also receive grant funds from partners. Fundraising events are another method that we like to have fun with and get creative. We use the donor management platform called Network for Good (NFG) to receive funds from individuals and to manage the donor database. NFG is an excellent platform.
We are actively seeking volunteers to get involved with fundraising in the way that is the most enjoyable for them. It could be grant writing, donor engagement, fundraising development, and community partnering. The range goes from working with a computer, to making calls on local business for partner opportunities. Our rescue budget is in the range of $48,000-50,000 per year. Let us know what would be the best fundraising volunteer activity for you.
