Garden Of Innocence/San Diego

The Garden of Innocence/San Diego operates almost entirely on volunteer labor -- everyone, from our Founder to our Board... from our graveside service participants to our casket makers and crafters -- each volunteer time, talent and/or treasure to help us meet our mission. If you would like to help we have many areas where you can help a little or a lot.

It's a simple process to volunteer. Contact volunteer@gardenofinnocence.com with the following:

• Your name and contact information
• How did you hear about our garden?
• What specific area of interest do you have? (See the areas below)
  
• How many services have you attended?
  
  Our Service Coordinator will process your request and introduce you to the person leading in your area of interest so you can start helping our babies right away!
  
  Thank you for making our mission -- your mission, too.
