Group And Corporate Service Projects

Help Make Arlington A Better Place!

Your Group Can Make a Difference!

Volunteering in our local environment brings cohesion and a sense of purpose while also making Arlington a cleaner, greener, and more inviting place to live and work. We facilitate your group’s service project so your volunteers can focus on what matters: connecting with nature and each other and improving the local green spaces and waterways. 

Group Volunteer Opportunities
