Volunteer from anywhere
Webster is a long drive for a lot of people who care about this work. Outreach volunteering removes that barrier entirely — you raise money and tell our story from wherever you are.

Food, medicine, and habitats are paid for before they're needed
Ticketed experiences cover a great deal, but not everything, and not evenly across the year. Outreach volunteers close that gap — through fundraising drives, sponsorships, community partnerships, and the simple work of making sure more people know we exist.
Outreach
One role, done from wherever you are. You help bring in the donations that feed, house and treat the animals.
Outreach Volunteer
The work is reaching out to people and asking them to support the sanctuary. We give you the stories, the photos and the current funding needs; you bring your network and make the ask — either for a direct donation, or for someone to run a fundraiser of their own.
Birthday campaigns are the easiest ask to make. You invite someone to run a Facebook birthday fundraiser for the sanctuary. They set it up, they share it with their own friends, and as a thank-you they get a discount on a visit here.
Your job is the invitation, not the fundraiser itself. Each person who says yes puts the sanctuary in front of a network we'd never otherwise reach.
Good fit if: you're comfortable asking people you know to chip in for something you believe in.
