New.York.Cares #VOLUNTEER 

[APA] November

We thank our #volunteers and NewYorkCares for the regular efforts to revitalize
Astoria Park, our green space heart.  <3  This of course is in addition to the
much needed care done by the NYCParks and staff. We appreciate the gardening,
weeding, debris removal, mulching, bench painting, and many other park activities
done for love of the environment and of the community.

Our cheers to each and all!

Getting Started

Start giving back in your community and make a difference.

STEP 1: CREATE AN ONLINE ACCOUNT

Get started by setting up your own New York Cares account. You will be able to use
this account to register for volunteer opportunities, view your upcoming projects, and
evaluate ones that you've already done!

STEP 2: ATTEND ORIENTATION

You can then learn more at your New York Cares orientation. We run dozens of orientations
every month throughout the city. At orientation, you'll learn how we work and what you
can do as a volunteer.

STEP 3: SIGN UP FOR A PROJECT

After you've been to orientation, you can get started signing up for projects.
Search online and find the best project for you!

PLEASE NOTE: You must be at least 18 years old to participate in New York Cares year-round volunteering.
