We'd love to have you on our team

Our volunteers are more than helping hands. They become part of the heart of our mission.

Make a Lasting Impact

At Miniature Moments at Foster Farm, every gentle interaction has the power to change someone's day—and sometimes, their life.

Our miniature donkeys help create moments of confidence, connection, healing, and joy for children, families, and members of our community. Behind every meaningful experience is a team of compassionate volunteers who share our belief that small acts of kindness can make a lasting impact.

Because our work involves both vulnerable people and beloved animals, we are intentional about who joins our volunteer family. We aren't looking for the most experience. We're looking for the right heart.

If that sounds like you, we'd love to meet you.

Who We're Looking For

We believe the best volunteers lead with kindness, patience, and humility.

Our ideal volunteers are people who:

✔ Love animals

✔ Enjoy working with children and families

✔ Are dependable and willing to learn

✔ Treat every guest with warmth and respect

✔ Appreciate teamwork

✔ Believe compassion can change lives

No previous farm experience is required. We'll gladly teach the practical skills. A caring heart is much harder to teach.

More Than Volunteering

When you become part of Miniature Moments,

you become part of a community that believes healing often begins with the smallest moments.

Many of our volunteers tell us they receive just as much as they give.

The friendships. The peaceful mornings. The laughter.

The quiet moments between a child and a miniature donkey.

These are the moments that remind us why we're here.
