Individual Volunteer Opportunities

Whether you’re looking for an opportunity to complete a service project requirement or you regularly help care for our trees and public spaces, we want to make sure that you’re seen, appreciated, and counted! Here’s how you can get involved:

  • Browse our Volunteer Events Calendar

    If you’re looking for a place to work on a service project, you can browse our list of upcoming volunteer events to find upcoming programs where you can get involved. Feel free to reach out to the group leader of that project for more information.

  • Count Your Tree Care

    When you log into the NYC Tree Map, you’ll have the chance to mark local trees as your “favorites” and record your care activities. You’ll also be able to chart your work and find tree care reports from volunteers in your neighborhood!

  • Pick Up Park Litter

    Every effort helps, and you can show your park some love by picking up litter while you’re in a park! You can record your cleanup efforts with us. We’re thankful for all your help! Record Your Park Care

Record Your Park Care

Thank you for making a difference in keeping your park clean! We want to reach more volunteers than ever, and every little bit helps. Whenever you’re cleaning up your park, just take a moment to share your progress with us.
