Volunteer

We offer the following ways to volunteer:

Yard Work

Yard work is a never ending chore but we do our best.

We do our best to try to make the ranch look inviting. Bring your lawn mower, weed eater and clippers and instead of grooming horses spend a day grooming the lawn.

Fund Raising

Fund raising events are a lot of fun. See how you can help!

We sometimes take horses to schools, company picnics, nursing homes and fairs. It requires a lot of patience and perseverance but if it’s something you enjoy then we have a place for you.

Advertising & Public Relations

Dedicated, diligent and detailed oriented volunteers needed.

Dedicated, diligent and detailed oriented volunteer needed to help spread the word far and wide about us, what we do for horses.

Ranch Work

Volunteer hours for ranch work are from 8:00am to 3:00pm, 7 days a week.

Details

Many people volunteer the entire day. In the morning, we pen the horses for feeding, then release them, clean up the ranch (scoop poop, etc.), and interact with the animals (grooming, etc.) as weather and time permits. The afternoon work varies.

Construction

As with any ranch there are always construction projects to be done.

We need help from repairing fences to building shelters. If you are handy with construction tools we need you!

Attention

For the safety of our equine and employees, all Habitat for Horses facilities are smoke and tobacco free. No tobacco or simulated tobacco products are allowed on any Habitat for Horses property. This includes chewing tobacco and vapor-based cigarettes. Please respect our equine – leave them in your vehicle.

Age Requirements

Minimum age requirement is 13 years old.  Those 13 – 17 must have a parent or guardian present and volunteer with them.
