We don't track hours, instead, we track how many animals are in our foster program each month, how many foster homes we are using each month, and we separate out dogs in foster, cats in foster, puppies, and kittens. We also add all that up for the end-of-year board report and annual review. Hopefully, that helps!

Subject: Tracking Foster Volunteer Hours
Hi All:
For those of you who utilize fosters, how are you tracking their hours in an online volunteer scheduler?
We are utilizing Volgistics for volunteer scheduling and to track volunteer hours (we are small and it works great for our needs), however I'm not sure how many volunteer hours to add to time sheets for a foster. Technically, they have a pet for 24 hours days but that seems excessive.
Thanks for your input.
