Help the San Antonio Public Library

Take Care of Our Furry Friends
Animal Care Services in San Antonio needs your help walking, bathing, grooming, and socializing with pets. Help is also needed with administrative duties, photography, laundry, and more.
Share Your Love of History
Volunteer with the city’s Office of Historic Preservation by becoming a tour guide and helping with both surveys and community events. You’ll be in your element while also sharing your passion with others.
Keep San Antonio Beautiful
Individuals are welcome, as scouting troops, families, school clubs, and civic organizations. In other words, the more the merrier. There’s always more tree and flower planting, conservation work, and beautifying to be done.
Join Forces with the United Way
Whether you’d like to help mentor young people, prepare food bags, or spend an afternoon with a senior, the United Way has many different ways that you can lend a hand in the San Antonio area.
Get Rid of Graffiti
Unfortunately, graffiti is an issue the city cannot tackle alone. Volunteers can help by joining scheduled groups for two hours of cleaning. Those who prefer to work on their own can join the individual volunteer program and receive a kit to work on their own.
