VOLUNTEER

Join our team! We here at So Cal Mini are always looking for eager helpers to keep up with the day to day operation! If you're interested in helping, please complete the contact form below and someone will get back to you...and schedule your orientation! 

Dedication

*So Cal Mini is home to over 60 minis and other animals. While we  appreciate every person who wishes to volunteer, we cannot accept  volunteers that are not willing to dedicate at least a month to  volunteering — one day per week for a month is our minimum.

*Each volunteer must go through training on the ins and outs of mini  care and general sanctuary upkeep. We simply do not have time to train a  one-day volunteer.

Age Restrictions

*Mini horses may be small, but they are still horses and can weigh  upwards of 300 pounds! While they may look cute and cuddly, they can get  rowdy and that can be dangerous for those unfamiliar being around  horses and especially children. Some of our minis have come from abusive  homes and we are working tirelessly to re-socialize them, so treating  the minis with the utmost care and patience is required — volunteering  is not a game.

*As such, So Cal Mini cannot accept volunteers age 16 or under.
