Volunteers
"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn." ~ Benjamin Franklin
Since the Sanctuary's founding in 1985, volunteers have been critical to our small staff by helping with a wide variety of projects.
Every year, more than 200 volunteers donate over 5,000 hours of their time, skills, and enthusiasm. This is the equivalent of a $100,000 donation.
Our volunteer program is divided into four broad categories and facilitated through the Volunteer Coordinator, Lindsay Hollister. Generally our volunteer program is designed to work with individuals and families, however we can facilitate group projects on a case-by-case basis. Click on the links below to see the types of projects that fall into each of the four categories of our program.
