Come Volunteer!
The Self-Reliant House and Friends of the Environmental Center are always looking for volunteers.
Opportunities include projects in Green Building, Energy Design, Gardening and Landscape
Design, Office Administration and more. Do you have a talent you would like to share? Let us know,
and we will be happy to chat about how to put it to good use.
Can I get college credit for volunteering?
Yes, our new ENVMT 501- Sustainable Environmental Systems Projects class is a no cost, 0 unit
class which allows you to put your volunteer work on your college transcript. Our variable unit
EMART 10-Special Projects in Ecological Design class allows you to choose a project and recieve
from 0.5 to 3 units of college credit. The cost for this class ranges from $10-$60, depending on the
number of units received.
Do you have work days at the Self- Reliant House?
Yes! We organize work days periodically when we have a large project, or many small projects
which require a group effort. Check out our Upcoming Events page to see if any work days are
currently scheduled. If you have a project in mind and would like to organize a work day, or if you
have any questions regarding upcoming work days, please contact the center at (510) 434-3840.
What if there are no work days scheduled?
We would still love to have you! Contact the Environmental Center at (510) 434-3840 to discuss your
interests, and to set up a time to come up to the center.
Mark April 24th, 2009 on your calendar!
