Volunteers are always welcome at KFBRP

There are many ways for you to get directly involved with helping to save the forest birds of Kauaʻi. We have opportunities for everyone from home crafters to experienced outdoor enthusiasts. You can best support our efforts, if you are able to commit to a regular volunteer schedule eg. one day a week or month.

If interested in any of these opportunities, please contact us with a brief description of your experience, how you would like to get involved, and your availability. To make it easier to process your request, make sure to include the following:

1.) Area of Interest, Category of Service (see below) and Experience

2.) Resume

3.) Whether you wish to work remotely or on Kauaʻi

4.) Availability

Please note that most volunteer opportunities for field work are easily accessible day trips. Back Country camping trips are costly and are reserved for our staff and experienced volunteers.

Please also join our Mailing List. This is your opportunity to get hands-on experience with KFBRP!
