We welcome the interested public, rescue, sanctuary, welfare organizations, veterinarians and members to participate in hands-on care of the aviary and the birds. The Foundation willingly provides its materials to interested volunteers to distribute appropriately in their local area. The Foundation developed a volunteer training manual for training, teaching, educational and safety purposes. The aviary hosts family fun, on-site volunteer work weekends and picnic lunches at the aviary quarterly throughout the year.

MEET OUR VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH!
Andrea Frederick has been involved with TGF as an avid supporter and volunteer since 2003. She’s been a tireless advocate for the birds and she has provided a wonderful lifetime home to Piper, an Indian Ringneck parakeet that was part of a true, TGF flock-rescue in February 2007. Her own life is further enriched by her birds Beaker (Caique), Skyler (Eclectus) and Harper (Alexandrine).
Andrea’s vocation is in the medical administrative field; her avocation is parrots. With her hobby, “Nice Bird” toys, she has been a creative wizard in her own specially designed enrichment and foraging toys for parrots. No matter the bird’s size, the detail is just perfect for that particular bird. Whether new, used or bargain store items, what wonderful uses she’s found for coffee filters, loofah sponges, buttons, used toy parts, paper and more! The volume of toys that Andrea has personally created for TGF is over 1000, not a small feat for anyone!
Andrea has also been a regular feature at nearly all TGF Education and Outreach events. From Bird of the Month, to special educational events, and representing us at different locales, Andrea’s contributions to TGF are immeasurable. Every one of us, feathered and not, at TGF thanks Andrea for her compassion and commitment to the birds and to our programs.
