We Need You!
But Our Horses Need You More
Volunteer For the Horses
Giving your time to help us – whether it is hands on help with the horses in our care, assisting with our general administration or helping out with fundraising and creating awareness, your help makes a real difference.
Our volunteers also help raise money and awareness of our good work within their local communities and sometimes further afield!
There are lots of benefits to becoming a Canham Farm Horse Rescue volunteer. You will learn more about horses, meet new people and make new friends, develop or gain new skills and experiences which in turn will help you gain confidence and self-esteem. You will also become part of a valued team allowing you to give something back to an animal that has given this country so much, yet are often treated so badly.
Still Want to Volunteer?
A few things to ponder before you commit. Looking after horses is hard, dirty work, but if you like smelling of horses, getting covered in hay, scooping manure, working in the heat of California summers and the winter rains, adore horses and can lift heavy items (up to 50lbs) then volunteering at our horse rescue may be perfect for you. We truly appreciate our volunteers, and while we understand how busy you are, we’re so grateful when you choose to share your time with our amazing rescued horses. Please note that grooming and handling our horses acts as a reward for consistency and commitment. All experience levels are welcome!
Our horse rescue has made a commitment to be open to anyone who wishes to be a volunteer, regardless of their finances, or their gender, ethnicity, or LGBTQ+. No one is turned away, but we do ask all volunteers to commit to raising minimum of $250 per year to help keep our rescue afloat. Which in turn and enables us to rehabilitate these majestic, therapeutic animals. In addition, we require you to purchase and wear while on your shift one of our logo tees or sweatshirts at wholesale pricing.
