How can i help animals or volunteer?

Okay so im 16. I wanna find out about helping animals or volunteering for when its adopt a pet day at pet smart or anything to help!
Have any ideas or advice?

Well I used to help out at a human society here in my town. It was accually a lot of fun and I loved helping the poor animals out. I had to stop though because my dad had to go with me (because I am only 13) and he got sick of doing it so I guess I was out of luck. I think you would enjoy doing that if you have the time. Just find a shelter or something and ask them if they need any volunteers and if they do you just have to fill out a few papers and work out the dates with them. You can always ditch them too if you find out that kind of work is not for you. I mean they can't be mad at least you helped for a while right. Oh and I know that I didn't really answer your question but I think you would like to do this more than just doing adopt a pet day at petsmart. Maybe not but oh well I tried.
