Volunteer with MWDTSA

When you volunteer with MWDTSA, you make a difference for MWD teams serving in harm’s way.

A volunteer with MWDTSA might…

Contact manufacturers to request in-kind donations
Write thank you letters or blog posts
Conduct educational events in pet stores and schools
Host creative fundraisers
Apply for grants
And much more…

We’re an all-volunteer organization, meaning that everything we do is a labor of love.

If you have a skill you’d like to volunteer, please contact Jan Slotar at jan@mwdtsa.org and complete the Volunteer Application below.
