At Cleveland Amory Black Beauty Ranch (CABBR), volunteers are essential to our ability to provide care to more than 1,200 domestic and exotic animals daily. They contribute in a wide variety of ways ranging from administrative work, helping with maintaining the grounds, building enrichment toys for the primates, grooming and caring for the equines, and coordinating special events such as our open house or tabling events. Importantly, our volunteers have fun and make new friends, while helping animals.
