Volunteers and Contributions (In-Kind and Donations) Volunteers are an integral and necessary part of numerous NCWRC conservation projects, initiatives, and partnerships. A volunteer’s time can be used to provide the state portion of SWG-funded projects through ‘in kind’ match, a form of non-cash contribution. Other types of contributions are important sources of money that is used for projects that benefit nongame species or priority habitats. One example is the sale of T shirts donated by Neuse Sport Shop of Kinston at the NC State Fair. Another example is land and easements donated for wildlife habitat and improved access to boating and public fishing access areas.
