FEATURE: The 2024 Volunteer Impact Report Available NOW!
2024 was another incredible year for volunteer service thanks to our generous volunteers, the dedicated staff who lead and supervise them, and the Volunteer Services team that works mostly behind the scenes to support both volunteers and staff leads in successful volunteer engagement throughout our MetroParks. This year, we grew by 6,400 volunteer hours for a total of 32,030.49 hours! AMAZING! Those numbers alone may not mean much, but when you start thinking about what they represent - all the helping hands tackling invasive species across our parks and conservation areas, maintaining our trails, planting native trees and plants, tending to our beautiful gardens, welcoming and assisting visitors, providing tours for school groups, demonstrating 19th century farm life, and working to ensure the success of our many programs and special events - it means a whole lot. Put simply, MetroParks could not do all that we do with you, our volunteers. This year's Volunteer Impact Report shares some of the data and stories of that very special difference volunteers make. We hope you'll take some time to flip through it, and that you will find something in it that speaks to you and makes you proud of the impact you've made with MetroParks. We'd also like to invite you to review your individual impact in your Volunteer Resume on Get Connected. Simply login to Get Connected and click the "Volunteer Resume" link on the right side of your volunteer dashboard. Then, filter the year fields for January 1, 2024 - December 31, 2024. Click "Go" to view your individual contributions to MetroParks in 2024. We are hope you are proud of the service you have provided and the difference you've made. Thank you so much for your support - We truly appreciate you!
