Volunteer at an Animal shelter at Ukraine/Hungarian Border
- Hungary
About Program
Red Shed is an organisation currently helping animal welfare shelters in border countries of Ukraine. We are now looking for a select few volunteers to help us at one of the Hungarian/Ukrainian border shelters.
If you are interested in helping Ukrainian animals (in a very safe space), this will be your best experience.
The Ugat Lak shelter has been in operation since 2011, but it is is now unable to cope with the number of Ukrainian animals it has been asked to take in and Red Shed is looking to help them. We are looking for dog-friendly volunteers who can help us repair and rebuild this shelter
Anyone who is physically fit for manual work to help re-build this shelter. It will be a 'bit of muscle' if you are not used to it, however extremely rewarding to see the difference you will have made in the lives of these animals.

Program Impact
You will be integral to the start of this shelter repair and rebuild.
The woman Eniko who runs it is absolutely lovely, as well as her regular volunteers.
They are under a bit of pressure since the war began, so we are delighted to help them out.
This will be a lovely small group whom you will enjoy being around and sharing stories!
Most importantly, you will be close to ALL of the super friendly dogs :)
This will be a really great achievement to have under your belt!
