At Uniting 2 Save Animals (U2SA), every life we save is made possible by people who choose to care.
We are a volunteer-powered, foster-based nonprofit animal rescue, and our volunteers are the heart of everything we do. They open their homes, give their time, make connections, transport animals to safety, lend a helping hand, and step up when a life is depending on us.
Our ability to save lives is directly tied to the people willing to stand beside us.
There are dogs waiting in shelters right now—dogs who may have never known a loving home, a soft place to sleep, or what it feels like to be truly wanted. For some, time is running out.
You can help change that.
You don't have to have endless time or resources. You don't have to know everything about rescue.
You simply have to care and be willing to help.
Whether you can foster an animal, provide transportation, help at events, network a dog in need, assist behind the scenes, or simply give a few hours when you can—your contribution matters.
One volunteer can make a difference.
One foster can save a life.
One helping hand can turn a heartbreaking ending into a second chance.
Join U2SA and become part of the team giving animals hope, safety, and the chance to finally find home.
Because sometimes, all it takes to save a life is someone willing to step up.

You don’t have to do it all to change a life.
You just have to do something.
At Uniting 2 Save Animals, our rescue is powered by dedicated volunteers working together toward one goal: saving animals and giving them the second chance they deserve.
Our organization is made up of volunteer teams, and every team plays a critical role in our rescue efforts. From helping an animal get to safety to supporting our fosters, networking dogs in need, assisting with events, or helping behind the scenes, there is a place for you on our team.
And the best part?
You can give what you can.
Depending on the volunteer role, the time commitment can be as little as one hour a month—or you can become more deeply involved and give as much time as you have available.
Your time, your skills, your compassion, and even a few hours here and there can make an incredible difference.
Because every life saved starts with someone willing to help.
Find the volunteer opportunity that speaks to you and become part of the U2SA team. Together, we can do more. Together, we can save more lives.
Prefer to roll up your sleeves and be part of the action? Our in-person volunteers play a vital role in helping animals move from shelter to safety and, ultimately, to home.
These volunteers primarily support our adoption events and transports, helping make sure our dogs are safe, supported, and ready for their next chapter.
In-person volunteer opportunities include:
Every role matters. Every volunteer makes a difference. And every dog you help could be one step closer to home.
Not able to attend events or volunteer in person? You can still make a life-saving difference from wherever you are.
Our remote volunteers provide the behind-the-scenes support that keeps U2SA moving forward. Their time, skills, and dedication help our rescue connect animals with adopters and fosters, support our volunteers, raise awareness, and make sure the important work of rescue gets done.
Remote volunteer opportunities include:
You don't have to be at the event to make an impact. You just have to be willing to be part of the team.
Help us save more lives by opening your heart and your home to a dog in need.
There are lots of ways to give of your time and talents and help us achieve our mission.
