Volunteerism
We have a
strong volunteer program at the Malheur Field Station. Volunteers are
very important to us. Great care is taken in matching particular
volunteer talents with needed projects and tasks. We receive Volunteers
both on an individual level or as a group. Groups may consist of
informal gathering of friends or colleagues or more organized groups
such as scouts, outdoor clubs, or organizations specializing in service
programs. Please ask us about our volunteer opportunities and policies
regarding room and board. Upon contact, you will be sent a form to fill
out regarding your particular talents, skill levels, and availability.
Thank you in advance for your interest!

a monetary donation to the Malheur Field Station is tax-exempt.

Material Donation
The Malheur Field Station does have
a need for material items in good condition and working order. Material
donations can play an important role in improving our facilities and aid
in keeping operational costs lower- an indirect benefit to our education
programs. Please contact us for a current list of needed items, to ask
about the usefulness of your potential donations, or to let us know if
you could offer assistance in the transportation of items to the Field
Station.
