Join us any Wednesday and Friday, April through October, and help us to beautify our parks and green spaces to make a difference in our community! *If Fridays or Wednesdays do not work for your group, we can schedule a different day*
Meet at Springdale Green, 8300 Longworth Detroit, MI 48209. We will work at one of many public, green spaces that UNI works with the community to maintain. UNI works with the community to steward over 20 acres of land, and we need all the help we can get! The work done contributes to sustaining safe, happy, and prospering neighborhoods in Southwest Detroit.
Activities include but are not limited to: clean-up, weeding, landscaping, mowing, weed-whacking, leveling, raking, and shoveling. The scope of work is vast, but volunteers can plan on outdoor landscaping work, clean-up and physical labor.
Apparel & Equipment: volunteers should bring jeans/work pants, shoes/boots, shirt (short or long sleeve) that they are OK with getting dirty. UNI provides tools, water, gloves, sunscreen, and safety glasses. Volunteers may bring coffee, snacks and other accessories.
Registered volunteers will receive an email notifying them that the event will be rescheduled.
*Although the volunteer event is listed as 9am - 1pm, we are very flexible and can schedule different times for your group! We will work to accommodate all volunteer needs and schedules*
