Youth and Teen Programs


Shelter Helpers

Shelter Helpers is a fun in-person program specially designed for students looking for opportunities to help their community. Perfect for young animal lovers (8-16 years-old) Shelter Helpers will explore different ways that youth can help homeless pets.

Youth Service and Student Projects

From DIY service learning projects to organizing a supply drive, there are a number of ways to help pets in need.

Community Cats 101

Join us to learn how to support our community cats! Working or feral cats may not be ideal house pets but they deserve to live healthy and full lives while keeping their populations controlled. You can help keep feline friends in your neighborhood safe by becoming a feral cat caretaker. You’ll learn from Lollypop Farm experts about TNVR, cat shelters, colony care, and more!

Junior Camp Counselor Volunteer Program

The junior camp counselor volunteer program is a great way for teens to gain valuable job experience working with children and animals in an education environment. Teens ages 15-17 accepted to the program will assist Lollypop Farm camp staff in providing fun and engaging week-long sessions of camp to children in grades K - 9.
