Volunteer

Foster a Sato: We are always in need of fosters in the following states: NY, NJ, CT, PA, MD, and NH. The Sato Project provides a leash, harness, and crate. We cover any necessary veterinary expenses. For more information visit our Foster a Sato page. We also need fosters in Puerto Rico!

Transporting dogs: We are often in need of volunteers to transport our dogs from Morristown, New Jersey to their foster homes in NJ, NY, CT, and MA.
Volunteering at a transport: We always welcome new faces at our transports in Morristown, New Jersey to help deplane our satos safely, so they can go to loving adopters and fosters!
Get your workplace involved / explore a partnership: Think your co-workers might want to volunteer with you? Have an idea for a corporate sponsorship or partnership? Check out our Partnerships page!
Creative skills: Do you like to edit videos about dogs, write captions for social media, or put together graphics that align with our brand? Tell us about your skills and passions and perhaps you can help The Sato Project tell our stories and spread the word about our work.
Hold a community fundraiser: Not in the New York area but still want to help? No problem! You can help us rescue more dogs by holding a community fundraiser. Community events such as bake sales, lemonade stands, or house parties can help us raise vital funds and spread the word about our work.
Volunteering in Puerto Rico: Due to the nature of dog rescue and the risks involved, we do not have an ongoing volunteer program in Puerto Rico. However, if you would like to be notified in the event volunteer opportunities come up, please email the address listed below! (Especially seeking Spanish speakers)

If you have any additional questions, please contact us at volunteer@thesatoproject.org
