  • Community Volunteer Projects

    VOLUNTEER PROGRAMS: THE CORE OF OUR MISSION IS ROOTED IN PROVIDING OUTDOOR-BASED COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER PROJECTS THAT CONNECT INDIVIDUALS AND GROUPS OF ALL AGES, BACKGROUNDS AND ABILITIES TO THE OUTDOORS THROUGH UNIQUE VOLUNTEER SERVICE PROJECTS. OUR TEAM WORKS WITH LOCAL MUNICIPALITIES AND FEDERAL LAND MANAGEMENT PARTNERS TO CONNECT COMMUNITY MEMBERS WITH HANDS-ON LEARNING AND SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES ON PUBLIC LANDS, URBAN PARKS AND TRAILS. VOLUNTEER PROJECTS TYPICALLY INCLUDE TREE PLANTING, NATIVE HABITAT RESTORATION, LITTER REMOVAL/RECOVERY, PAINTING/CLEANING AND OTHER OUTDOOR RECREATION INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS. THROUGHOUT OUR 2024-2025 PROGRAMMING SEASON, WE HOSTED 80 VOLUNTEER EVENTS THAT ENGAGED 3,341 VOLUNTEERS AND GENERATED 8,037 HOURS OF SERVICE. TOGETHER OUR VOLUNTEERS PLANTED 269 TREES, ESTABLISHED 1,003 NATIVE PLANTS, AND RECOVERED OVER 19,188 POUNDS OF TRASH FROM OUTDOOR RECREATION AREAS LOCATED ACROSS CLARK COUNTY.
