Volunteering with Union Park
Volunteering in your neighborhood is a great way to give back, connect with neighbors, and build community. Our board and committees are made up entirely of volunteers. And, we welcome volunteers to help with events, reach out to neighbors through flyering and surveys, and provide support and talent in other ways. In fact, many of the beautiful photographs on our website were taken by James Ebert, a community volunteer.
We'd love to talk to you about opportunities that match your skills and interests, so please contact us!
