Earth Day has inspired people for more than five decades to come together
and volunteer for the places we call home. This year, under the banner of “Our
Power, Our Planet,” Volunteer Houston invites individuals across our region
to celebrate by taking part in hands-on activities that create positive change
for our communities and environment.
From planting trees—which improves air quality and creates safer, greener
neighborhoods—to addressing community cleanups in neighborhoods, parks, and
waterways, to projects that reduce plastic waste and restore natural habitats,
volunteers play a vital role in keeping Houston vibrant, healthy, and
resilient.
This Earth Day, join us in demonstrating our power to protect our
planet—one action, one individual, one family, one neighborhood, and one
volunteer at a time.
