Volunteer Opportunities
DAILY CARE & ENRICHMENT

TIDY UP &
SOCIAL HOUR
You will quickly learn that birds love to make a mess! Every Thursday night, our volunteers swoop in from 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm to clean house but are rewarded with one-on-one time with their favourites!
WORDS WITH BIRDS
Wednesday nights are reserved for families to interact with the Flock from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. This includes our Words with Birds reading program as well as a variety of creative activities like crafts and toy making.
