Program VolunteersCan't commit to a weekly class? Not comfortable around horses?
There are lots of other ways to help out. Maybe you can help us get items donated for our annual Dinner Dance & Silent Auction. Handy with tools? We always have things around the farm that need fixing. Or help coordinate one of our events, serve on our board of directors, volunteer during day camp, write a grant. You tell us! |
