Everything we do is possible because of the people who step up to help as volunteers. You don’t have to be able to handle a chainsaw to help us protect, preserve, and restore habitats. You don’t even have to live close to our office! Here are some ways you can help:
- Photograph a workday or event
- Join the Communications, Outreach & Education, or Development Committee to help with writing an occasional article, fundraising event, or hike
- Address or stuff envelopes for fundraising campaigns
- Volunteer at a workday (in Buffalo, Crawford, Grant, Jackson, La Crosse, Monroe, Richland, Trempealeau, or Vernon County)
- Share your talent by leading a guided hike
- Assist with Excel, Word, or GIS projects
- Let others know that if they are a Thrivent member, they can use Thrivent funds to help fund events or workdays at the Conservancy
- Proofread print material prior to publication
- Record videos of members telling their conservation stories
- Become a site steward for a nature preserve
- Share information about the Conservancy’s events and mission with your family and friends
- Bake cookies or cupcakes for events
- Distribute flyers about volunteer workdays to
- locations near the nature preserve
- Gather names for speakers or hike leaders
- Send us articles when you see the Conservancy mentioned in the news
- Drop off a few newsletters or annual reports in waiting rooms or other places where the public gathers
- Offer to host a Linked to the Land event on your property
Some of these tasks take just a few minutes and some a few hours, but they can all make a big impact on what we are trying to do together. If you would like to help, please fill out the volunteer form online to tell us how you could use your talents to enhance our mission of protecting and preserving habitat in our area.
