Looking For
Hoo Haven is looking for an individual that would like to help us do our paper work. It would be about 4 hours a month and maybe at the end of the year or January a little more.
The work does have to be done here with a good cup of coffee or hot chocolate so Steven and myself and you can work together.
If you are interested please call 816-629-2212 and leave a message for me. Please remember I work and will answer all calls either at 6am or 7pm.
PICK UPS AND VOLUNTEERS
Check out the logo to the left Click on it and go to Their web site but don't forget to come back.
"Hoo" Haven does very few pick ups any more let us explain.
Because of the number of mammals and birds we care for, treatment, feeding, cleaning and running Hoo Haven and also in consideration of our full time jobs and our volunteers' full time jobs, it is not feasible to do pick ups any longer.
We do have volunteers to the west who pick up birds of prey and animals for Hoo and transport them. They are called Transport Volunteers We would be glad to teach individuals how to do this if anyone is interested.
At "Hoo" there are all different kinds of volunteers because we are solely run by volunteers and supported by the generous donations of the People, Who Believe In What We Are Doing.
Please do not punish an animal or bird and do nothing because we do not pick up. We will walk you thru it and you will feel good at the end. No one person or facility can do it all. If we all work together we can make Rockford and all Mother Earth a better place to live for all future generations. It is not everyone else's job, it is everyone's job to help.
It truly saddens me when individuals get angry on the phone.
Thank you

VOLUNTEERS
“Hoo” Haven could not operate without the dedicated staff of volunteers, who give of
their time and effort to help the many animals and birds that come thru our door. However, ours is not just helping animals, it is thanking the individuals who take the time and effort to stop and help all of God’s Creatures and in doing so are an example to children, family and friends, what true love is. We are ALWAYS in need of more. If you are a busy person, with much on your plate, and love in your heart, you are probably the type of person we are looking for. A willingness to help make a difference and a two hour a week consistent commitment is required of volunteers.
We can utilize seasonal help which means May thru September for the busy baby season. There will be a training session coming up in May on a Saturday, so if you are interested please call 629-2212 and leave a good phone number where you may be reached early in the morning or between 7-9pm.
REMEMBER WE QUALIFY FOR ALL COMMUNITY SERVICE HOURS. (SCHOOLS, BUSINESS, CHURCHES, ETC.)
SORORITIES AND FRATERNITIES
If your Sorority or Fraternity would like to help out once or more just call us. 815-629-2212.
Helping and having fun go hand in hand. Please remember we also qualify for credit in some classes because we are a 501(c)3. So you may be able to have fun and get credits all at once.
Also any groups that would love to help out just call.
Together we can make Mother Earth Better and all feel good.

GARDENERS
Maybe this year will be our lucky year. We are hoping gardeners will come out and help us beautify the pens where all the birds and mammals live.
Plants out of your yard that you divide would be great. we want only periennals.
We love the wild look such as daisies, grasses and cat tails and more.
Please I hope you will find time to help us.
