Volunteers must be able to commit to at least a 2- 4 hour shift, but you are welcome to stay longer to enjoy all of the goat love you can fit into a day!
REMOTE GOAT DUTY
Live too far away, but still want to help? (and earn some fringe benefits (aka goat hugs). Perhaps you can help us grow our mission from afar! Maybe you can research grant opportunities, fundraise online, or create social media posts. You might be an artist who can commit to creating and donating a piece of art for our annual art auction. Are you thinking about something else that you can do from home to help us help goats? Let us know and we can set up a time to chat!

JOIN our ADVISORY BOARD
We are seeking individuals with diverse backgrounds to join our advisory board with the specific task of helping us PARTY! OK, well, maybe there's a little bit more to it than that. We are trying to increase our visibility and also find other ways to support the care of the rescues at our growing sanctuary. We will be planning three small events each year (ex: Spring Fling, Winter Wonderland, Fall Foraging - you get the idea.) But we need HELP! We are already stretched at the moment, so that's where you come in. Help us get our events off the ground! Maybe you can help with advertising, marketing, vendors, itineraries, set-up/clean-up. We are recruiting 4-6 enthusiastic individuals who have some time to give and are excited about making new friends (both human and goat) and new memories!
Help guide the mission of Frederick Farm Goat Sanctuary
and contribute your expertise.
