Get Involved - Become a Volunteer!

Do you have a skill you'd like to share?  We can use your help.  The Eastern Shore of Virginia National Wildlife Refuge is looking for volunteers to help us achieve our mission of conserving, protecting and enhancing America's fish and wildlife and their habitats.

Volunteers perform a wide variety of tasks including:  providing information to the public in the Visitor Center, gardening and landscaping, assisting with public and school programs, taking part in special events and projects, helping with maintenance projects, and performing clerical administrative duties, to name a few.

Help us achieve our mission-become a volunteer!

Who Can Volunteer

• Anyone with the desire and time to participate, no special skills are necessary.  On-the-job training is provided.
• There is no age limit, but anyone under 18 must have written parental approval.
• Organized group participation, such as scout or youth groups, is welcomed and encouraged.

How Much Time Does It Take?

The amount of time you volunteer is up to you.  You may work full-time, a few hours per week or month, or during a particular season or for a special event.
