Have you ever wondered what it's like to work with exotic birds?

Curious about cockatoos, amazons, African greys, or even macaws? Volunteering at Rhode Island Parrot Rescue is a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience with a wide variety of parrot species.

Our birds come from many different backgrounds, but they all share one thing-they love attention! As a volunteer, you’ll learn about the joys and challenges of keeping companion parrots, and discover why they are now the third most relinquished companion animal, right behind dogs and cats.

Start time: 9:00 AM

Location: Warwick, RI

What you’ll do:

• Clean cages and aviaries

• Support daily nutrition and husbandry routines

• Midday toy safety checks & parrot enrichment

• Training, fresh waters, and food bowl maintenance

No experience? No problem. We’ll train you!

Come spend your morning making a real difference-for them, and for you.

By giving your time, you help us continue our mission:

- To find loving, permanent homes for our birds

- To educate the public on the complex needs of parrots in captivity

- To give each bird the care and enrichment they deserve

Whether you're young or young at heart, there's a place for you here!
