Rearing2Read is made possible by our generous volunteers. Volunteers can sign up to help with two tracks:
Track one: Hands-on with the program
Track two: Behind the scenes
Below is a list of examples of what duties may include:
Track 1: Hands On
Assisting with the after-school program as a tutor or horse handler
Running a station or table at an Open House or Workshop
Working as a camp counselor during summer camps
Track 2: Behind the Scenes
Organize the Bunny House and/or program supplies
Photograph events
Assist with fundraisers and donor recognition
How to Become a Volunteer
Email president@rearing2read.us, sharing your interest and which track you are interested in.
If you plan to follow Track 1, you will be sent a background check invitation from Backgroundchecks.com. Rearing2Read must receive a Volunteer's background check before they work with minors.
After the background check is approved, Volunteers will be added to the shared calendar. Volunteers can sign up for volunteer opportunities there!
Please note: Volunteers are responsible for paying for their check ($36.47).
