Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteers are vital to Schooner Inc's achieving our mission. Your donation of time has real value and we track volunteer hours as a means of demonstrating community support. There are plenty of opportunities for you to help. Volunteers can participate onboard the Quinnipiack and in the office with administrative tasks. Volunteers are welcome on week-days and weekends.

Volunteering on the Quinnipiack
As a member of the Quinnipiack's volunteer program, you will be trained in all aspects of shipboard operations and maintenance. You will learn the art of marlinspike seamanship by a knowledgeable, professional, and experienced crew so that you can assist in everyday operations.

Maintenance is an on-going activity before, during and after our official sailing season. Schooner Inc benefits from a strong volunteer corps that helps keep the Quinnipiack looking her best throughout the year.

Requirements:
  • No prior experience is necessary. All volunteers are trained by the Captain and crew on shipboard operations
Volunteering in the Office
Volunteers in the office help with mass mailings, fundraising activities, newsletters, data entry and more.

If you would like to volunteer with Schooner Inc, please call the Schooner Inc office for more information (203-865-1737).
