New England Primate Conservancy is a grassroots nonprofit organization that depends upon the skill, talents, and generosity of its volunteers to accomplish the essential and important tasks associated with animal protection, care and humane education. Our volunteers make our programs successful!
We'll work with your schedule. Volunteer opportunities do not require a prescribed number of months, but they do require the commitment of your time and talents. We ask you to honor your commitment to the number of hours per week that you pledge to us upon signing on as a volunteer. Since you may be largely self-managed, we expect you to honor those commitments and meet your deadlines.
Whether it's writing for our Primate Species Profiles series, developing educational activities and lessons, designing graphics, developing videos, fundraising, or planning events, there is something for almost everyone who wants to do their part to help animals.
We do not have any paid employment opportunities at this time. If you are interested in a volunteer, please check out the open positions and email us with your interest and qualifications, as requested.
Please email us with your interest and resume or CV. Email addresses are listed after each volunteer job description.
No phone inquiries please.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Seeking Social Media Finesse
New England Primate Conservancy is a wildlife conservation and animal protection organization that makes its greatest impact through education. We are committed to leaving a legacy of hope and tools to create a better tomorrow for all the Earth's citizens. To that end, we offer fun learning activities, engaging lesson plans, stories, facts, presentations, videos, and a wealth of resources...because education is the heart of animal protection.
With the increased implementation of online and hybrid learning environments, we've ramped up development of educational content that makes it easier for teachers to teach, for students to learn, and for parents to adapt to their unwitting and unfamiliar roles as academic coaches. Even as children and teachers head back to the classroom in the coming months, or if they're already back, innovative lessons and activities facilitate navigation through what could still be an environment in transition.
As we further expand the reach of these programs, we need someone with the social media savvy, finesse, and willingness to dig into social media to find the teachers and organizations that can most benefit from these programs and engage more teachers and students with our educational content. We are currently active on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, and YouTube, and are open to other platforms with your expertise.
The immediate goals are to:
Minimum age 28.
10-20 hours per month. We'll work with your schedule. More time may be required during the program launches. Less other times.
Please send your letter of interest and resume or CV to:

Looking for a Creative Thinker to Develop Project-Based Educational ContenT
With the expanded implementation of online and hybrid learning strategies, we've ramped up development of educational content that makes it easier for teachers to teach, for students to learn, and for parents to adapt to their unwitting and unfamiliar roles as academic coaches.
New England Primate Conservancy is a conservation and animal protection organization that is committed to leaving a legacy of hope and tools to build a better tomorrow for all the Earth's citizens. Education is the heart of animal protection. 70% of our primate cousins are threatened by extinction. All are threatened by human activities. If they are at risk, so too is every other species that share their environment. Saving one species saves many.
For this volunteer opportunity, you should have experience creating project-based educational content for grades K-12 or for specific age-groups in between. The activities will be accessible via the NEPC website. They could be online activities, printable activities, or a combination of both. For example, our current activities include videos, slideshows, graphics, and downloadable games.
If you’re an experienced teacher, this opportunity may be for you.
If you are a creative individual with learning activity development experience plus a passion for conservation and wildlife protection, this opportunity may be for you.
Familiarity with primatology, anthropology, conservation-related issues, earth sciences, environmental protection, or primate-related subject matter would be beneficial. Understanding of STEM or STEAM standards-all the better.
This volunteer position can be accomplished from your home, with email and phone correspondence with the Education Team Director. You must have internet and email access. NEPC will provide access to appropriate apps.
Minimum age 28.
10-20 hours per month. We'll work with your schedule. More time may be required during the activity creation process. Less other times.
