Teen Board

Our teen volunteers are very important to the Central Oklahoma Humane Society. Our teen board offers a unique opportunities for teenagers to contribute to the Oklahoma City community in a meaningful way, while allowing them to build resume credits and real world experience.

  • Our Teen Associate board can have up to 24 members each year.
  • Members are selected after completing an online application and interview process.
  • Applicants must be in high school. We are looking for mature, compassionate, responsible teens who enjoy working with other teens and adults and are leaders among their peers.
  • Teen board members are expected to serve a one year term with the term beginning in September and ending in May.
  • The board will be responsible for planning a special event to benefit the Central OK Humane Society.
  • The board members are required to attend a minimum of 7 out of 9 meetings. The monthly meeting time will be the same each month.
  • Members are responsible for sending a letter of resignation if they are unable to fulfill their responsibilities to the board.
  • Verification of volunteer hours will be provided and, if requested, letters of recommendation to colleges or employers can be made available.
