The UP Volunteer Center is hosting two outdoor volunteer events next Saturday July 18th in University Place. These events are made possible due to a grant called Together Green from National Audubon Society. Together Green is helping build the promise of a greener, healthier future through innovation, leadership and volunteerism. We need at least 25 volunteers at each site, so please spread the word and come out for a great day volunteering. Pick a site and let me know which one you are interested in. These are great opportunities for groups or individuals.
