Ariane, our founder can't do all the work by herself and needs the help of volunteers. Without them, it would be far too time-consuming and draining for Ariane to properly take care of the animals.

Volunteers stay at the property for a minimum of one month. In exchange for their work, they get room and board consisting of vegan and organic meals.

Important: Because it is a sanctuary and the animals don't take a day off, volunteers are expected to help out every day. However, you are not working for the whole day.

The work is related to animal care which includes first and foremost, cleaning the stalls and fields so they are poop-free, feeding the animals (twice a day), administering medication (if needed), brushing and petting, giving lots of love and attention to the animals and helping with meals (for the humans!). Additionally, some fences or other structures may need to be fixed.

You will mainly be working outside and may need to occasionally carry some heavy items (hay bales, feed bags, water buckets), Ariane is over 60 years old and can do all of these things so a minimum fitness is required but by no means do you need to be a gym rat to be able to help out.

Love of animals, the outdoors and being motivated are the only prerequisites!

From transplanting seedlings within our nurseries to removing harmful invasive species, volunteers are essential to the success of Save The Bay’s restoration work.

To restore the shoreline, Save The Bay engages community volunteers, schools, and businesses throughout the year to help with seasonal phases of the restoration cycle. All Restoration Volunteer Programs include:

At least one Project Leader from the Habitat Restoration Team, certified in Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED
Introduction to Save The Bay and San Francisco Bay history and ecology
Gloves, tools, and all necessary equipment
Restoration project direction and tool safety instruction
Sunscreen and water
No experience necessary

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Is there an address for the meeting location?
Our restoration sites do not have street addresses, and meeting location is determined based on site needs. If you are participating in any of our volunteer programs, you will receive directions to the meeting location 1-2 weeks prior to the event. We provide specific GPS points that can be plugged into any mapping app or site to get you to the correct location. Because our sites are often not recognized by most mapping programs, we ask that you do not use any other source of directions besides the GPS points provided by Save The Bay.

May I bring my children?
Absolutely! Our restoration programs can be a great learning experience for the whole family, and we often have toddlers in our programs. All that is required is a little extra attention and guidance from the parent/guardian. Many of the activities can be modified with your supervision for an enriching day, and we encourage exploration of the shoreline by your little ones!

What should I bring and wear?
Be prepared to be outdoors for three hours. We recommend that you do not bring any valuables, and do not plan to leave valuables in your car.

Sturdy, closed-toe shoes are required
Dress in layers; long pants are recommended
Sun protection, such as a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen
Full reusable water bottle
Are your sites accessible by public transportation?
Yes! Most of our sites are accessible by public transit and by bike. Make sure to reference our site directions for bike paths. Our site in Oakland is the only site accessible by BART.

Do you cancel programs because of bad weather?
We will still run programs in a light rain and will provide ponchos for volunteers. High winds or thunderstorms may force us to cancel a program. If your program is canceled, you will be contacted on the phone number provided during online registration.

Can I volunteer to attain Community Service Hours?
Yes, our volunteer programs count toward community service hours, whether school or court mandated. Each program counts for three hours, and field staff can provide and/or sign forms on the day of the event at the end of the program.

Save turtles and be a community hero.
All turtles are at risk of extinction in Canada. The major threat to most are road injuries and mortality. Road Researchers and Crossing Guards adopt sections of roads that are known for turtle-strikes, and they assist our shelled friends to safety, while gathering important data to help scientists plan for mitigation such as turtle tunnels, road signs, and nesting mounds etc.

Too often consumers and the public are supportive of our cause—but they just don’t know it.

This is why we need to be where they are, and attend events including markets, fairs, and festivals, to make people aware of the injustices inflicted upon animals. Having a presence at such events gives us the opportunity to interact directly with the public, including engaging in face-to-face conversations, handing out informational fliers, or soliciting petition signatures. And it’s a great way to meet new people, too!

Tabling opportunities include:
• Educating members of the public about key animal welfare issues such the caging of laying hens, dairy cow welfare, and fish binding

Opportunity Details

Since our founding more than 20 years ago, we have never shied away from tackling neglected issues, pushing them to the fore.

Whether it be pushing to reform the inhumane slaughter of pigs or fighting to end unnecessary animal experiments, we know that addressing neglected issues provides the best opportunity to help the animals most in need.

However, without public awareness we will never be able to create the society we seek. As a volunteer speaker, you will have the opportunity to educate influential institutions and the public, swaying their views on the issues that affect animals.

Speaking opportunities include:
• Speaking to the public, institutions, schools, and at events about the welfare issues confronting caged laying hens
