Join & Contribute
SWRR is an independent, non-profit 501(c)3 organization. Your donation is tax deductible. We operate solely
on income from donations from SWRR members, volunteers, the general public, sponsors and occasional grant
funds for designated projects. We depend on the generosity of community members and organizations to allow
us to provide food and medical care to the over 1000 injured, orphaned, and sick animals we receive per year.
There are numerous expenses that we incur to care for these animals, with over $15,000.00 spent on food
alone.

Volunteer Opportunities
Shasta Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation, Inc. is an all-volunteer organization that needs your help to continue
this vital work in our community. Without this organization the animals would not be able to get a second
chance at survival in the wild.

SWRR is always in need of hard-working, reliable volunteers with a love for nature. If animal care is not your
passion, volunteer opportunities are available in our education program, fund raising events and non-animal
care.

We are now taking applications for volunteers to help feed and care for baby birds at the Wildlife Center in
Anderson River Park. Have you ever found a baby bird and wondered what to do with it? Is that baby really an
orphan? Find out what you need to know to care for the summer babies at the Center. We'll train you and only
require that you volunteer for one 4 hour shift a week at the center. The babies are depending on us!

If you are a teenager 13 to 17 years old, you can work with us in the Young Volunteers category. Please read
the Policies & Procedures Manual (download below) for more information. A volunteer must be 18 to work with
any raptors.

It is a requirement that all volunteers become members of our organization, as membership fees help to cover
the operating expenses of the center.

If you have questions, you can call the Center and ask to speak to our Volunteer Coordinator or you may
contact her directly (no animal calls please):

Vicki Cavalli, Volunteer Coordinator
Phone: 530 365-2807
Email: norcalcritters@live.com

Note that Vicki is our new Volunteer Coordinator beginning in 2011. Please update your contacts list.

New Volunteer Training Class
This class is mandatory for all new volunteers. There is a $10.00 fee for the class in addition to your first year
membership dues. For 2012 it will be held in mid April in two sessions. Visit our Classes and Education web page
for more information. You may also contact the Volunteer Coordinator with any questions.
