Summer Volunteers Needed at Recycling Centers

Great Summer Volunteer Opportunity!

Help your community and the environment by volunteering at one of our community recycling centers! Recycling preserves forests; keeps oil, natural gas, and minerals in the ground; and prevents air and water pollution.  This is an excellent opportunity for teachers with the summer off, employees who get Volunteer Time Off compensation, retired folks looking to stay busy, or simply enthusiastic recyclers!

Students: want to add some experience to your college application?  Volunteer with us this summer and wow your top college choice by showcasing your commitment to the community and the environment!

Volunteers assist the recycling center site manager with various duties, such as breaking down cardboard, helping visitors, etc. This is an outdoor opportunity.

Flexible Shifts: Wed through Sat, between 10am – 5pm (you choose 3 hours that work for you).
