Earth Day Events

“Our experience on-site at the nonprofit had such a positive impact on our team that we have chosen to regularly donate and continue our support of their work.”

– Gabi Burn, Greenology Employee

11 Years of Impact

This Earth Day, businesses and community groups came together to complete hands-on projects for the health of our natural environment and the communities that depend on them. Teams of volunteers were matched with local environmental nonprofits to learn, build connections, and make a rewarding, positive impact together.

Three Ways to Engage

Mission Reveal

Virtual

What will your team’s Earth Day project be? The surprise is part of the fun! When you register, you let us know what your team is ready for—whether it’s moving boulders, volunteering in the shade of air conditioning, or something in between.

Join us for a 30-minute virtual call where we’ll unveil the community projects your team can get involved in, the nonprofit you’ll be matched with for the Volunteer Challenge, and have matches meet to learn more about the organization and volunteer need.

From building pollinator gardens to clearing invasive plants, recycling bike parts, and tidying up trails, there’s a project for every interest and skill set!

Volunteer Challenge

Project Sites

Gather your team and get ready for an unforgettable day of hands-on action!

Teams will arrive at their project sites eager to dive in, where they’ll learn about the nonprofit’s mission, discover the real-world impact of their work, and dive into a meaningful project. You’ll collaborate, problem-solve, and roll up your sleeves to complete the project together.

But that’s not all—Judges will be visiting each site to chat with volunteers, get in on the fun, and help decide who takes home some special Earth Day awards.
