Volunteer opportunities in Monmouth County
2 opportunities
Fulfill — Neptune
Fulfill's main Monmouth County facility. Volunteers sort and pack donated food, support office and mailing work, help with tax return assistance, and distribute food at mobile pantries across the county. Volunteers must be 13 or older; younger students can organize food drives instead. Complete an application and attend the mandatory virtual orientation on the first Thursday of the month, 5:30 to 6:30pm.
Monmouth County SPCA
The Eatontown animal shelter. Be aware of the age rule before you apply: all volunteers working at the shelter must be at least 18 years old, with no exceptions. Students under 18 are pointed to the Junior Volunteer Guide instead, which covers hosting fundraisers and donation drives in your own community rather than working on site with the animals. That still earns service hours at most schools, but it is not shelter work. Adult volunteering requires orientation (held every two months), a $100 volunteer fee, a background check, a shelter tour and training, and 16 hours of basic shelter work.
