Thank you for signing up to volunteer with Oklahoma Alliance for Animals! We’re so excited to have you join our team. Please complete the below release form to be added to our volunteer Facebook group and messenger threads.

I desire to work as a volunteer for Oklahoma Alliance for Animals and engage in the activities related to being a volunteer for various OAA activities and projects. I understand that the activities may include but are not limited to traveling to and from various activity locations, handling animals belonging to various rescue groups and shelters, performing various types of manual labor, and other work as necessary and agreed to by the Volunteer and OAA.
I hereby freely and voluntarily, without duress, execute this Release under the following terms:

• Waiver and Release. I, the Volunteer, release and forever discharge and hold harmless OAA and its successors and assigns from any and all liability, claims, and demands of whatever kind or nature, either in law or in equity, which arise or may hereafter arise from my work for OAA.
• Insurance. The Volunteer understands that OAA may elect to provide group liability insurance and make it available to volunteers. Any coverage so provided will be governed by the policy language. Except to the extent it makes available such group liability insurance, OAA does not carry or maintain, and expressly disclaims responsibility for providing any health, medical, or disability insurance, in the event of injury, illness, death or property damage.
• Medical Treatment. Except as otherwise agreed to by OAA in writing, I hereby release and forever discharge OAA from any claim whatsoever which arises or may hereafter arise on account of any first-aid treatment or other medical services rendered in connection with an emergency during my time with OAA.
• Assumption of the Risk. I understand that my time with OAA may include activities that may be hazardous to me, including, but not limited to working with animals, loading and unloading of materials, and local transportation to and from the activity sites. So, I recognize and understand that my time with OAA may, in some situations, involve inherently dangerous activities.
• Photographic Release. I grant and convey unto OAA all right, title, and interest in any and all photographic images and video or audio recordings made by OAA or local and national media during my work for OAA, including, but not limited to any royalties, proceeds, or other benefits derived from such photographs or recordings.
• Other. I expressly agree that this Release is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by the laws of the State of Oklahoma in the United States of America, and that this Release shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Oklahoma. I agree that in the event that any clause or provision of this Release shall be held to be invalid by any court of the competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such clause or provision shall not otherwise affect the remaining provisions of this Release which shall continue to be enforceable.

To express understanding and agreement to the terms of this release, I hereby sign the Release.
