Volunteers

Volunteers are essential to non-profit success, and National Wildlife Federation wants to support the Affiliates in their volunteer related endeavors. By working with NWF's Volunteer Team, your organization can tailor a volunteer package to its own needs. Benefits of working with the Volunteer Team include sharing current NWF volunteers, learning how to recruit your own support, and most importantly how to recognize and retain these special individuals and groups.
