Georgia Herpetological Association & Rescue
Volunteer Spotlight:
Lizel Sillman
We appreciate every single volunteer who spends time helping the rescue, but we want to take a moment to especially thank Lizel! Lizel and her family first came across our group as adopters, but quickly turned into active volunteers. Not only are the Sillmans a foster home, but they also volunteer for educational events. Lizel recently put on a new volunteer hat and joined our Communications Team, helping to work with members of the public who need to rehome their animals, as well as finding our foster animals their forever homes. Thank you, Lizel!
Ready to Help?
We are currently looking for volunteers who are willing to work at our main location in Rockmart, GA, and/or serve as foster homes for animals in our program. If you have a special skill or need volunteer/service hours, fill out the link below.
We have work days at our Rockmart location at least once a month to help care for our animals, build enclosures, and reorganize materials. We have a lot of work to do, but we always have a good time doing it, and it's a great way to meet more like-minded individuals passionate about helping animals.
Teen volunteers must be at least 16 years old with written parental permission and must attend the orientation with a parent or legal guardian. All volunteers (except those fostering) must be available to work at least one shift at the rescue in Rockmart per month to remain active volunteers. We host many fun reptile shows and educational events all over Georgia, but only volunteers who meet the requirements at the rescue are eligible to work the specific events.
