We are looking for friendly and welcoming folx who can introduce the goats to visitors and at events. Our events are generally during the day at Awbury but can be any where around the city. We go to places like libraries, colleges, and schools. If you are a bit of a teacher, a bit of a performer, a bit of a of a nurturer and all around friendly and welcoming we would love to have you work with us! Most opportunities are in the mornings, afternoons and on weekends-if you are available any of those times and want to work with the cutest goats ever-check us out!!
if interested, please fill out the volunteer interest firm at www.phillygoatproject.org
