Volunteering at Tiger World Endangered Wildlife Preserve is a great way to make a difference and participate in our mission to save threatened and endangered species. Volunteers are immensely dedicated and passionate, whose reward for all their hard work is knowing what an impact they make. Every year Volunteers enhance Tiger World. Volunteering is a critical part of our day-to-day operations. Our Volunteers provide educational guided tours to students and visitors, help beautify our park and landscaping, create and develop new enrichment for the animals, build our new animal habitats, paint, help run our gift shop, and more. If you have a talent, we want you to share it with us.

Volunteer Guidelines
To make volunteering at Tiger World a huge success, we have devised guidelines.
1. Want to become a volunteer? Please complete the above steps.
2. Please email us in advance if you want to volunteer at a specific date and time. We ask for a minimum of 24-hour notice before coming to volunteer. Please get in touch with us if you cannot make it to a volunteer shift.
3. Let us know the number of volunteers in your group for volunteer groups. We must know before your arrival if the number changes. All projects are scheduled in advance for a specific number. If you have more people than you are scheduled for, we may not have the staff and projects to accommodate.
4. Any volunteer under the age of 18 must have a parent or guardian present.
5. Tiger World is an outdoor facility, and most of our projects require the cooperation of good weather. If it is inclement weather and your volunteer group is scheduled, be prepared to postpone and reschedule. Contact us to plan another volunteer date. In inclement weather, your group will be contacted the day before your volunteer date to reschedule.
6. Please dress comfortably. Pants, shorts, and a T-shirt or sweatshirt with close-toed shoes (waterproof are recommended) are appropriate for most volunteer activities. No open-toed shoes are permitted.
7. Most of our volunteers cannot work directly with the animals. This is for the safety of volunteers and animals. Please do not attempt to touch any animal while volunteering.
8. Volunteer T-shirts are available for purchase ($18) after a third shift is complete.
9. Please bring your drinks and food; onsite food is limited.
10. All volunteers must fill out and sign the Volunteer Release.
11. Thank you! Volunteers are a tremendous blessing and make a difference for all our animals and visitors.
