Share your time and skills

Volunteers are at the heart of River2Sound. You do not need to be a scientist or a historian, just curious, reliable and glad to help others discover the shoreline. Commitments range from a one-time contribution to an ongoing advisory role.

Sponsor

Local businesses and organizations can sponsor a single community program, a seasonal series or a full year of education. In-kind support such as printing, food, equipment, photography, transport or professional services is welcome too.

We only promise what we can deliver, and we never share participant data.

Did you learn with us?

For more than twenty-five years, students, families, staff and volunteers have explored the River and the Sound with us. As we begin our next chapter, we would love to hear your memories: a first tide pool, a favorite walk, a lesson that stayed with you.
