Volunteer

Make a difference when you volunteer at Greenbelt Park!

NPS

Volunteers-In-Parks (VIPs) are Very Important People! Explore, learn, and share your time and talent while helping us protect these special places. From assisting with trash pickups, serving as campground hosts, helping with the non-native invasive plant removal and interpretive programs, and everything in between - the work our volunteers do makes a difference! Every year, thousands of individuals contribute their enthusiasm and skills to help the National Park Service preserve and protect the natural and cultural resources and to serve and educate visitors.

Individuals, families, and organized groups are welcome to volunteer. Opportunities are available both for highly skilled professionals and for beginners with little or no experience. The time commitment for volunteer service varies from a short-term projects to continuous work (Campground Hosts) extending over months. Drop-in events are held throughout the year, including three national service days: MLK Day in January, Earth Day in April, and National Public Lands Day in September.
