Dear Volunteers,

The Bronx River Alliance welcomes you as part of the team. We depend on you for help and support within the Bronx River community. The goal of all of our activities is the restoration and beautification of the Bronx River through eco-friendly activities and programs.

The Alliance is always interested in your welfare and safety. Each activity you will be participating in is an opportunity to make a difference. It is important that all volunteers remain attentive so that they may learn and grow from every event.

What you may not realize is that volunteering also benefits you as an individual. There are many good reasons to get involved in the community, including learning something about yourself.

You can:
• Make new friends
• Explore career and personal interests
