Genesis Volunteer Agreement and Code of Conduct

To apply for Genesis membership, you must be at least 21 years old.

As a volunteer of Genesis Animal Rescue, I give my pledge and promise to abide by the policies of this organization (including, but not limited to, the Policies and Procedures, and By-Laws) and to conduct myself in a professional, courteous and ethical manner at all times to other members of the organization as well as in any capacity where I associate myself with Genesis. I will promote the ethical treatment of animals and responsible pet ownership according to the guidelines within the policies of Genesis.  I understand I will receive descriptions of duties appropriate to the tasks I am volunteering for and agree to follow those guidelines at all times. I also understand that I will undergo the same investigation that is required of any adoptive applicant when they have requested to adopt one of Genesis’ rescued animals. After my membership has been approved, I will maintain regular contact with the Genesis Board of Directors and work under the direction of any mentor or committee chairperson to which I am assigned. By completing this form, I understand that my membership may be revoked at any time if I am found to have reneged on this pledge in any way.  I agree to perform all assigned duties and turn in all paperwork in a timely manner and will maintain appropriate records as needed.
