Volunteers  


"I remain a volunteer because I can see that my efforts make a difference." - Steve Dang, Volunteer

 

Thank you for your interest in volunteering for Seattle Audubon! We have a thriving volunteer program. With over 500 volunteers, we maintain a high level of activity and energy in our diverse programs.

Founded in 1916, we were completely volunteer-run for our first 63 years. Volunteers continue as the heart of Seattle Audubon, its strength and richness.
