Recruiting Organization: Virginia Equine Welfare Society (VEWS)

The Virginia Equine Welfare Society, Inc. (VEWS) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit all volunteer based Virginia corporation working to prevent equine abuse and neglect. Our mission is to rescue and rehabilitate equines in need and to prevent equine abuse and neglect through education and community awareness. We provide safe housing, medical and rehabilitation services to abused neglected, abandoned, unwanted and other at-risk equines and eventually, at the appropriate time, place them into caring, compatible adoptive homes.

We are currently seeking enthusiastic volunteers to help with the daily care of our horses and light farm maintenance tasks. This includes (but is not limited to): feeding, grooming, and field maintenance. There are other opportunities for folks to help on our fundraising team as well. No experience is required, but volunteers must be at least 18 years old.

• 2 shifts per day (AM and PM) each take about 2 hours, depending on how many horses we have. We ask that volunteers commit to at least one shift per week.
