Meet new people, and help birds
Be a part of our organization’s transformation! We are a grassroots group that is fueled by the energy of people who love and care about birds. Whether you have a little time to spare or would like to become part of our team, you can find an opportunity here:
Instagram Coordinator: We’ve grown our Instagram following to nearly 3,000 in 2 years, and need help with continuing our growth and engagement, including making posts and stories, responding to followers, and coordinating the activities of other CBA Instagram team members.
Web content manager: help us spread important messages about our activities and bird conservation. Full training on Squarespace provided.
