Join Our Team of Conservation Volunteers!

Volunteering

Grassland Bird Trust always needs volunteers to help with our mission.  Land stewardship, Fundraising, Outreach and serving on one of our Committees are just a few of the opportunities for you to support the mission in a BIG way!

Development Committee (Fundraising)

Grassland Bird Trust is looking for committee members who can help with strategic planning, grant writing and/or hands on fundraising events such as memberships drives and social events.

Individuals with experience in fundraising, grant writing, marketing, non-profit or business administration and a keen interest in promoting wildlife protection and land conservation are encouraged to apply.

Conservation Committee

Members of the Land committee generally work in land protection/conservation or stewardship. Stewardship involves site management and maintenance, such as invasive species or brush removal, overseeing mowing schedules, bird surveys and field trips.

Land Conservation involves permanent protection of land as wildlife habitat for  endangered and threatened grassland birds. Experienced volunteers may assist with land acquisitions or help expand our conservation initiatives. Members should be positive, open-minded and committed to conserving land for endangered and threatened grassland birds.

Outreach & Education Committee

Outreach Volunteers help with a variety of tasks, including community outreach, membership drives and tabling at our events. You will work closely with our Outreach/Volunteer Coordinator.

Education Volunteers may help with planning and presenting programs for youth, families and adults. Examples include youth education programs in schools or summer camps, guided walks and photography or birding workshops.
