TND is constantly looking for volunteers to help implement and plan the work that makes neighborhoods healthier. Volunteers populate our board and committees where they help plan for the future and answer tough day to day questions about the direction of the organization.
TND is almost always planning for an event and if that is the case we will need volunteers to be successful. Whether it be hosting block parties, organizing neighborhood clean ups, hosting a tax preperation site, volunteers allow us to be creative and think big.
If any of these events or campaigns interest you please feel free to contact George at greuter@tndinc.org for more information.
Current Volunteer Opportunities
