Volunteer
Bloom Parks & ProjectsVolunteer with Bloom Parks & Projects and make a world of difference in your community’s wellbeing.
Together, we help kids – and communities – bloom
At Bloom Parks & Projects, volunteers make the magic happen. Every activity, from horseback adventures to eco-learning and creative play, comes to life because of people like you – kind, curious, and ready to help kids connect with nature and themselves. When you volunteer, you don’t just lend a hand; you help build confidence, joy, and belonging for every child who walks through our gates.
Whether you can give one afternoon or an entire season, your time makes a lasting impact. We offer flexible opportunities for all ages and interests, from mentoring and event support to nature walks, gardening, and skill-based projects. Join a community that believes in growth, giving, and the power of shared experiences. Together, we can help every child bloom.
