Answering the Call

Volunteer Program

Wolf Connection volunteers commit deeply; understanding the power of the pack is stronger than any one of us individually. There is much to be done seven days a week to further our global mission, and to serve the wolves and program participants at our beautiful 165-acre sanctuary. No fluorescent lighting or tight work spaces here! 

Volunteers learn together, work hard together, and definitely have fun together. The team shares joys and sorrows while helping create the best lives for humanity’s greatest teachers, the wolves. Their dedication, generosity, and love of the wolf and human pack and our mission helps shape what we do and who we are. You too can volunteer to support our nonprofit organization that empowers all beings to believe in their worthiness and their inner capacity for personal growth.

I felt compelled to become a volunteer at Wolf Connection during a time of extreme grief and loss in my life. I also felt a strong desire to reconnect with nature and animals so volunteering at Wolf Connection afforded me the opportunity to really give back, ground myself, and feel centered. I was also able honor the memory of who I’d lost which helped with my own healing and also I’ve also grown as a person through the animals and the other staff and volunteers at Wolf Connection whom I continue to learn from. As the years pass, I feel as though I’ve made new friends, deepened my relationships with the animals, and contributed to their lives in a positive way. It’s also teaching me to be patient, and trust. Volunteering is a fun, fulfilling and important part of my life now and the animals continue to be some of my greatest teachers.

What brought me to Wolf Connection was the wolves, Wolf Connection mission and wanting to be of service. What I value most about my volunteering experience is knowing I am making a difference by enriching the wolves life’s and also the rewarding experiences I have received by being a part of this pack.

In such an unprecedented, uncertain, and delicate time, this program gave me a core group of women to connect to on a consistent basis and a bond formed between us that is unlike any other I've experienced. With the in-person retreat serving as the culmination of our discussions, journaling prompts, grounding exercises and other self-reflection activities, the alignment I felt with these women and the re-emergence of our wild, wolf energy, along with our interactions with the wolves themselves was nothing short of life-changing.

I can’t fully articulate how profound this experience was for me. I have long had an inner sense that my life and destiny are in some way intertwined with wolves. This experience only served to solidify that feeling.  It has me wondering about the ways in which I can be more involved with wolves and wolf conservation. I was also deeply impacted by the connection between the women in the program, especially when we met in person at the ranch. After a long time of feeling like a lone wolf, I felt like I found my pack.

I was looking for a new opportunity to volunteer and work with animals after having volunteered for over 18 years at a now closed sanctuary for wild and exotic animals. Having a particular affinity for wolves and having once visited Wolf Connection at its previous location for an event there, I filled out an application to volunteer there. I attended two days of orientation and was actually hooked by the end of the very first one. It felt right. It felt like coming home to be part of this pack - both human and wolf. There is a special magic at Wolf Connection - the land, the wolves and all of the two legged pack members who care for it all. I am so happy and grateful to have found this wonderful place. Being able to help care for these amazing animals and to connect with them on so many levels is such an honor and a privilege. I am truly grateful to be here.

The program was excellent. It went beyond my expectations. The care in the details was beautiful. I am going through so much withdrawals afterwards! LOL. My experience with this program was earth shattering for me. I feel it was life changing and at the very least (or most) energy raising. Truly transformative. I can not say enough. And that's really huge because all my life I have been a hardcore executive...ginormous experience.
