The management of a long-term research project requires much assistance from people of diverse talents. Given the sad state of public science funding, no research project can last long without the help of a large group of volunteers and private donors. Below we detail the kinds of assistance that would be useful contributions to the project’s goals. Be aware that some of these volunteer positions are far more popular than others, and despite our great appreciation of any offer of help, we cannot always find ways to use all volunteers, at least not at the time they initially offer their services. In such cases we will keep your contact information on file for the future, when we hope to find a better fit between our needs and your services. Please direct all offers of assistance to capuchinfoundation@gmail.com
