Hi
Just wanted to say you guys are doing a great job.
I often send people out to the refuge to visit.
we have a yearly membership and encourage others to do the same.
we would also like to volunteer when we can, we filled out a form but have not heard back.
thx
Jennifer

Hey Jennifer,

Thanks for your encouragement and support. If no one has contacted you about the volunteer form, then I can assure you it's NOT because your help isn't wanted and NEEDED. I can only assume that somehow it got lost in the constant overload of "stuff" that keeps Wendy constantly on the go. If I was asked "What is the one volunteer position we need filled most right now?", I would say: Volunteer Coordinator. Do you happen to have experience in somethink like that? Just hoping ;-)

Anyway, I'll email Wendy to see if she got the form.

Thanks again!
Grant

"The World Parrot Refuge is a true sanctuary where parrots live out their lives in a loving, spacious and happy environment under the guidance of extraordinarily caring people. The many visitors destined to pass through the refuge will come to understand that parrots are not toys or trophies, but beings with needs and emotions as real as our own."

– Rosemary Low (author of more than 30 books on parrots)

"This is, in a word, a great place and these miraculous creatures deserve no less, but few places can deliver it this well. It is, indeed, 'world class'."

– Stewart Metz (author and Director of the Indonesian Parrot Project), after his visit at the Grand Opening of the Refuge on August 13, 2005.
