Volunteer Opportunities

Explore available positions at IWRC and learn more about volunteering in wildlife rehabilitation.

As a 501(3)(c) nonprofit, the IWRC seeks support from volunteers from around the globe to support the services we strive to provide for wildlife rehabilitators. Our work relies on the combined effort of individuals across various industries who contribute their skills, time, and knowledge to further our mission. 

We understand that most volunteers have other careers and time commitments, so we are always open to finding a collaborative schedule that works for both you and our team. We have separated our volunteer needs into succinct packages, requiring no more than 3 hours each week. 

If you would like to volunteer for other services not listed below or are open to contributing more than 3 hours to our mission, feel free to get in touch with our team to learn more about joining IWRC as a volunteer.
