Transport Hay for Los Angeles Rabbit Foundation
Volunteer(s) needed to pick up 1-3 bales of hay from Riverside Dr. in Glendale or from Red Barn in Reseda, bag it, then deliver it to West Los Angeles and/or Playa del Rey. Hay and fuel costs will be covered by the Los Angeles rabbit Foundation (unless you want to cover the costs and then get a charitable receipt from the organization). Since traffic is lighter on the weekends, most "hay elves" prefer to pick up hay then--but any day is fine, as long as someone is available to receive the hay. They will work with your schedule. The frequency of each volunteer's hay runs will depend on the number of new hay elves they recruit. They currently have one hay elf doing a weekly or bi-weekly run, depending on demand for the hay. Since the demand has gone up to the point where they need hay weekly, and their primary hay elf needs a break, they need more hay elves. REQUIREMENTS: Driver's License Needed, Must be at least 18, 2-3 hours, Must be 100% reliable. Visit: https://www.volunteermatch.org/search/opp948339.jsp

Foster a Rabbit for Los Angeles Rabbit Foundation
Fostering a bunny or two is a fulfilling way to help save rabbits without the long-term expenses or commitment. You can foster for any length of time. Prefer homes within 20 miles of adoption venue (Mar Vista/West LA). Indoors only! They do not stick their foster homes with rabbits like some other groups do. They're a premier rabbit organization; their rabbits are neutered and box trained to varying degrees. They do not cage rabbits: they live in a playpen when not supervised, or a well-bunnyproofed room. Thank you for helping them save lives! REQUIREMENTS: Driver's License Needed, Background Check, Must be at least 18. Humane care is outlined in our foster home contract. Here's the basic information on fostering for them: http://larabbits.org/volunteer/fostering/ .Please fill out the online application here if you want to foster or adopt: http://larabbits.org/adoption-application/
