Teen service days are a chance for teens to volunteer virtually alongside their peers. Youth can learn about volunteering with organizations via guest speakers and participate in activities like creating cards for kids in foster care. Join in via Zoom.
This event is a unique opportunity for kids to meet with Austin Humane Society staff. Participants will first watch a video clip, fill out a worksheet, and participate in some hands-on activities. Then, they’ll be invited to bring their own stuffed animal (in need of a little love and care) to a virtual vet appointment, the shelter team will help diagnose and treat what ails their animal, and everyone will leave the appointment feeling better!
Download an age-appropriate "Quest Log" (children, youth, teen, or adult), then submit a form whenever a challenge is completed and earn a digital badge. Use the Austin Public Library's curbside pickup or virtual catalog to check out materials to complete your quest.
