They serve as ambassadors in the community, promoting Wolf Haven, wolves, and native prairie species.

Eika has been a Wolf Haven volunteer since 2024. In that time, she has proven to be a talented educator and committed advocate for wolves. Her passion for the species really comes through in her work with Wolf Haven. Whether it’s being a docent at the sanctuary, working booths at community events, helping with visits, or making food and enrichment items for the wolves, Eika always puts her all into everything she does. She cites visitor interaction as a particular highlight, and hopes to create wolf advocates and inspire positive impacts long after our guests have left the sanctuary.

I was a volunteer for Wolf Haven for about 12 years and I have to say that I received more from my volunteer experience than I gave. My fellow volunteers and the staff have all been wonderful and have supported me in ways unlike any other organization for which I acted as a volunteer. While the wolves don't send thank you cards, they provide some of the most wonderful appreciation that could ever come to us.

Being a volunteer at Wolf Haven allows me to participate in advocacy for a species that I care deeply about in hands-on ways. I never tire of being in the presence of these magnificent animals and talking about them with sanctuary visitors or at community events. My work at Wolf Haven has allowed me to integrate my passion into my everyday life.

My volunteer service began 9 years ago, and I've loved every moment I've spent at Wolf Haven. There are many different roles for volunteers, which makes it easy for everyone to find opportunities that suit their preferences and abilities. The skill, knowledge, and kindness of the staff and fellow volunteers is a testament to the fact that Wolf Haven is a place for people who care about wolves, wildlife, and other people.
