Duties - Volunteers help with animal care, prepare food, clean cages, answer the phone, do dishes, laundry, and other things that make it possible for the animals to recover and be released.
Qualifications - Anyone over 17 may become a volunteer. Some of our volunteers are college students and others are retirees in their 70's and 80's.
Time Committment - Most volunteers work between 4 and 8 hours one day a week. During the winter our case load is light and volunteers work less. In the spring and summer the case load increases so the volunteer hours increase. At the height of baby bird season some volunteers work for a second shift just to help with baby bird care.
Training - Some parts of wildlife care are simple, other aspects are difficult, demanding, or highly skilled. Training is provided by the SWCC. Volunteers start by doing routine tasks but there are many opportunities to learn to care for the more challenging animals.
