Revitalize the Ranch with The Milo Foundation at Sanctuary Work Weekends
The Milo Foundation invites volunteers to "roll up their sleeves" and assist with vital projects at their 283-acre Milo Sanctuary in Mendocino County. These weekend events are designed for those who enjoy physical work and want to support the 200+ animals—including dogs, cats, horses, and farm animals—who reside at the sanctuary for long-term rehabilitation. Volunteers help with building projects, general ranch maintenance, and clearing land to keep the sanctuary safe and functional. While the work can be hot and dirty, they ensure participants get plenty of "dog kisses and cat purrs" as a reward for their labor. It is a rewarding way to see the "sanctuary" side of rescue work and contribute to the quality of life for animals who need more time to find their special homes. Volunteers are encouraged to stay at the on-site volunteer cabin and contribute to a variety of critical ranch projects. Adults preferred; skilled teens allowed with supervision.
