Volunteer with Groundwork Denver on Jan. 16th!

Looking to volunteer to HELP connect people to resources, while making our communities and planet more healthy?!?!

Groundwork Denver is organizing our 7th annual MLK Day Neighborhood Energy Action event. This year’s event will take place on Monday, January 16th  in the Clayton and Cole neighborhoods of Denver.

If you’ve participated in this event in the past then you know the kind of positive impact this project can have on a neighborhood as a whole and on individual residents.  If you haven't participated in a Neighborhood Energy Action yet, you'll be pleasantly surprised at how much of an impact you can make in a few volunteer hours. We'll provide you with all the training and materials you need for the event.

Here’s what you'll be doing: In teams of two you will be given a walking route in the neighborhood with approximately 40 doors to knock on. At each home, you'll offer to change out the front porch light bulb to an LED bulb, provide information about reducing energy use, and sign people up for free recycling, free energy audits and free trees. It's simple and makes a huge difference for people and the planet.

We are looking for as many volunteers as possible for this event in the form of individuals and groups!

·         When: Monday January 16th, 2017
·         Time: 1:00pm to 4:30pm (1pm-2pm training; 2pm-4:00pm going door-to-door)
·         Location:  St. Charles Recreation Center, 3777 Lafayette Street, Denver CO 80205
·         RSVP:  Please let us know you are going to join us by emailing tamara@groundworkcolorado.org
