Give Your Time to the Anacostia River
Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteers are integral to restoring the Anacostia River. It is thanks to the work of the hundreds of thousands of Anacostia Watershed Society volunteers through the years that the river has improved. Our volunteers restore wetlands, plant native plants, collect seeds, and help with many other projects - often times pieces of larger plans that make a big impact on the river. All of our volunteer activities have an educational component and are an opportunity to learn about the watershed.

To stay in the know about our volunteer opportunities, join our monthly/seasonal Volunteer Email Newsletter! This monthly email will share upcoming events, pictures and stats about past volunteer successes, and seasonal tips to make the most of your volunteering experience.
