We welcome you to attend one of our volunteer orientations to learn more about WBF and the program. All we ask is dedication, responsibility, and a desire to help NYC’s orphaned and injured wildlife. Our volunteers come from a wide diversity of backgrounds, from students to professionals, from animal care novices to experienced wildlife care experts and everything in between! While many of our volunteers are involved in conservation or animal care in some capacity, this is not a requirement to join the program.
If you’re interested in helping the center in an off-site capacity, especially if you have a particular skill you’d like to contribute, please email. While most volunteers choose to work on-site at the center, we offer off-site opportunities as well, such as administration, education, and outreach.
