Critter Club is a unique education and volunteer opportunity for kids in the 6th through 8th grade who have a passion to help and protect animals. Critter Club members attend educational programs on Thursdays at HAWS and volunteer at HAWS on Saturday or Sunday mornings. A Critter Club session will run for an entire school semester.

Children interested in becoming a member of Critter Club must complete an initial application located on this page then submit recommendations from two non-related adults (teachers, ministers, scout leaders, etc.) and write an essay about why pets are important. Send these to [email protected]. Upon approval (please allow 24-72 hours), you will be emailed a private link to complete registration and payment ($180).
