What do KIB volunteers do?
KIB has many types of volunteer opportunities, perfect for school, work, family, or fun. Most take place on Saturday mornings from March through early June and September through November. Most Saturday projects begin at 9:00 a.m. and last anywhere from 3-5 hours. KIB projects are kid-friendly unless otherwise stated, so please plan to bring the kids! Volunteers must be 16 years of age or older, or accompanied by an adult. Here are just a few types of projects that need volunteers:
- Planting trees along residential streets and parks
- Beautification and revitalization of communities through planting trees, shrubs and perennials
- Turning vacant lots into pocket parks
- Cleaning up litter in neighborhoods, parks and waterways
- Creating outdoor classrooms on the grounds of local schools
- Some weekday projects for groups or individuals are also available!
