Hello,

Thanks for being interested in help me here at Emerald Ark. Presently, we need help with cleaning. Cleaning parrot cages and the bird room, vaccuming and gardening tasks, gathering organic chives seeds.

These tasks can be done in a day, no training required.

We have received our 501(c)(3) status from the IRS. Until we can move into our new facility we are making the best of the space and living arrangements we have. When we have secured our new location we will need volunteer help moving.

Please respond and tell me a bit about yourself. Also, please let me know the best way to contact you. Email or phone.

We take Sundays off right now.

Thank you,

Leslie Moran

Executive Director Emerald Ark
