每年, 多于1,000 people volunteer either as individuals or as part of group volunteer projects. Individuals volunteer in various parts of the organization, from helping to care for our animals on the farm 和 tending to our gardens to spending time with our students in the school 和 dorms as tutors or mentors. More than 40 volunteer groups are welcomed annually to assist with special projects 和 maintenance work. In addition, the 绿色的烟囱 Board of Directors is comprised of dedicated professionals 和 community leaders who share their time, 专业知识, 和 support for the betterment of services for children with special needs 和 animals.

Thanking volunteers virtually
While not every volunteer is documented in the photo album above, our heartfelt appreciation extends to each 和 every person who generously shares their time 和 hearts with 绿色的烟囱 as a volunteer.
