Get Involved

Evergreen celebrates the meaningful involvement of volunteers from all walks of life. It is central to our goal of making a difference at both the local and national levels. We value the skills, experience, enthusiasm and contributions that volunteers bring to all aspects of our mission to make Canadian cities more livable.

What do volunteers do?

Volunteers are involved in almost every aspect of Evergreen. They help on the ground, behind the scenes, in the office, in the field and with the community; they research, deliver programs, plant trees, take photos and provide leadership. Awesome!
