Volunteer with the Center
Volunteers receive training and opportunities for free programs. We do our best to make volunteering enriching and fun. The first step for you as a volunteer will be a casual, informational meeting with Board Co-Chairs.

Please contact the Center Coordinator at any time during the year at info@mainejungcenter.org or via phone at 729-0300 if you are interested in volunteering.
