Volunteer Application

Thank you for your interest in joining the Schweiger Ranch Volunteer Team!

Our volunteer application process consists of an online application, liability waiver, and if required for an opportunity, a background check (if 18 years or older) and applicable training. The cost of the background check is $17. Once the application process has been completed, our volunteer coordinator will work with you to find the perfect assignment on a one-time or ongoing basis.

To get started, please click here to download the liability and release waiver. Please complete the waiver prior to beginning the online application below. A copy of your signed waiver with original signature (digital or typed signature not accepted) must be uploaded prior to submitting your application. Upload instructions are provided in the application.
