Volunteer Your Services

to the Iowa Wildlife Center

How do we meet our goals of rehabilitation, restoration & renewal? Through a cadre of volunteers like you! Everyone has something to offer to make this all come together. To launch your potential volunteer experience with us, please fill out and return the application.

But first, here are some important things for you to consider. We have criteria that needs to be met before we accept volunteers, including having current COVID and tetanus vaccinations. If you are interested in working with most mammals, a rabies pre-exposure vaccination series needs to be acquired. We also require a commitment of at least 3 months volunteering 1 shift or more per week.

All volunteers need to submit a volunteer application before acceptance into the program. Feel free to download the Volunteer Application to get started.
