Volunteer Opportunties
Ardantane always needs volunteer help around the campus—and it doesn’t have to happen on regularly scheduled Blessed Beaver work parties. If you take on a project and complete it, you can earn Beaver Bucks that are good toward registration fees for classes or retreats. Contact ardantane-director@ardantane.org if you are interested!
Financial Support
Ardantane exists for our community because of the generosity of contributors like you. You should know that Ardantane is a 501c3 non-profit educational corporation, and that ALL donations are tax-exempt, and NO donations go toward staff salaries.
