Volunteers are the lifeblood of the International Horsemanship Foundation.  We recognizes three levels of volunteers: team leaders, long-term volunteers and short-term volunteers.

Team Leaders:

Team leaders are volunteers who lead a particular team such as programs, administration, or marketing.  Team leaders may work with our without other volunteers.

Long-term Volunteers:

Long term volunteers take on tasks for an indefinite period of time.  Some stay with us for years and may move into different roles as time goes by.

Short-term Volunteers:

Short term volunteers may sign on for a specific project or event.  Some short-term volunteers become long-term volunteers.  Others leave when the project or event completes.  Short-term volunteers do not need to go through the on-boarding process described below.

If you have an interest in joining our volunteer team and have questions, please contact us.

How Team Leaders and Long-term Volunteers brought on board:

To be selected and assigned tasks, volunteers must first go through the following process:

1. Applicant fills out a volunteer application and supplies a resume and references.
2. Applicant references are checked.
3. Upon approval, applicant is asked to sign a volunteer agreement.
4. Volunteer is sent welcome documents including a volunteer handbook.
5. Volunteer is added to volunteer time tracking.
6. Volunteer is assigned tasks and receives training for the tasks.

All volunteers except short-term volunteers must go through this process.

Volunteering is a great way to become a true part of the International Horsemanship Foundation experience. We thank you for your interest and your time!
