Wildlife Rescue offers many areas for volunteer participation. Wildlife rehabilitation, volunteering at the Center, fundraising, and education are only a few of the areas for which we need your help. We try to tailor the time you have available to help us to an activity that best utilizes your skills. We even have many activities that are necessary for the running of our center, but do not require animal related skills. There are always cages to be built or repaired, flower beds to tend, and just general maintenance of the Center to be done. Our volunteer coordinator will match you with the activity that best suits your skills.
We do not require experience, but we do look for people who can work well with others. It’s important to love animals, but people bring the animals to us and it is people that support our rehabilitation activities with their donations of money, supplies, and time.
All volunteers are asked to attend our Basic Class to get oriented to what our organization actually does. If animal handling is your goal, then more extensive training is required to reach a level of skill necessary to be licensed by the State of Texas. We will be happy to help you through this process in return for your help to Wildlife Rescue.
