Task Force
Hello everyone,
I accepted the position at the humane society I volunteer at to be the lead rabbit volunteer. This humane society is geared more towards cats and dogs and really the rabbits lives while living there are very sad. There are very few volunteers that come to get the rabbits out. There is not a lot of advertisement that there are rabbits there so we don't adopt a lot out. Some are put to sleep because there isn't room.
I would like to make the rabbit program more successful. I would love to figure out how to get more people involved that can volunteer to let the rabbits out to run. I have emailed rabbit people I know and some that have been forwarded on to me. But other then that, I am not sure what to do.
What are some things your shelters do to get people involved and to promote rabbit adoption? For the first time this year, we did our first adoption event for International Rabbit Day but we didn't adopt any rabbits. Though there was a lot of education going on about rabbits.
Any ideas would really be appreciated. I took this on because the previous person didn't have time to send out emails or do much with the program. I have the time, I just need some ideas.
Thanks Amy
