Volunteer Work Day at Elephant Shoes Animal Rescue - Gloucester County
Sat, Sep 12 · 11:00 AM EDT
Elephant Shoes Animal Rescue, 161 Piney Ln, Newfield, NJ, US
Join NJveg for a volunteer work day! We’ll be helping the nonprofit Elephant Shoes Animal Rescue. We highly recommend bringing a water bottle, bug spray, sunblock, work gloves, work boots, and clothes that can get dirty. If you’d like to donate, you can do so at the sanctuary or online.

Age 12 and up. Please sign up only if you are serious about attending and plan to attend for the full time. If anything comes up and you need to cancel, let us know ASAP, so that we may fill your spot. We’ve had a problem with last minute cancellations – don’t be that person!

We need volunteers for future sanctuary work days. If you’re interested in joining NJveg’s volunteer team, please contact us at NJveg.org@gmail.com or 609-557-7077 (text preferred).
