Be a Learning Center Volunteer

 View Heifer International Learning Center Volunteer Opportunities.

Looking for a hands-on way to experience sustainable solutions to hunger and poverty? There’s no better way than to immerse yourself in the daily practices of one of Heifer's three interactive Learning Centers. Learning Centers are hands-on campuses for learning about world hunger and poverty and Heifer's sustainable solutions toward ending those. Watch THV's story on volunteering at Heifer Ranch.

Experience working examples of the type of sustainable agriculture Heifer supports around the world, tend an organic garden, assist in the gentle care and treatment of livestock or help facilitate educational programs.

Learning Center volunteering offers a hands-on opportunity to see theory put in to practice and connects participants with a community that is actively working to end hunger and poverty and care for the earth!

Residential Volunteers
Residential volunteers, who must be at least 18 years of age, facilitate much of the educational programming that teaches and promotes sustainable solutions. Residential volunteers at each center benefit from on-site housing, stipends (minimum one-month commitment) and a strong community connection with other staff.

Local Volunteers
Local volunteers from the communities near each learning center help with facility and equipment maintenance, livestock chores, reception duties and leading education programs. Local volunteers can serve full or part-time in many roles.
