    Description

    New Volunteer Orientation

    Faith N Friends offers several volunteer opportunities to allow people of all ages, abilities, and experience levels to help prevent equine abuse and neglect.

    Do you want to bring your coworkers, riding club, scout troop, or community group to volunteer? FNF welcomes groups by appointment. Please email faith@faithnfriends.org for more info.

    Please fill out both the volunteer formAND the liability waiver. All first-time volunteers must fill this out prior to volunteering at FNF. Returning volunteers simply have to resubmit the liability waiver annually. These are electronic signature forms and can easily be filled out on your phone or computer. If you are under 18 your parent must complete and sign the form. Be sure to check all boxes and enter data where required or it won’t let you sign the form. If a particular field is not applicable enter n/a. All fields must have something entered. Prospective volunteers must attend Volunteer Orientation. Volunteer Orientation is held the second Saturday of each month (February - November) from 10:30-12:30 at the farm. Please monitor our Facebook page for announcements or message us for more info.

    ***NOTE: Volunteers of all ages are welcome. Volunteers under the age of 13 must have a parent or guardian with them while on the property or at events. Please include other family members, 17 and under, on the liability waiver if there is a possibility they will be participating or just accompanying you. Each adult 18 and older, must complete their own waiver, but you can include all family members that might be participating on one volunteer application.
