Take part in any number of meaningful restoration activities to help rescue your Rouge River. There is something for everyone!
No experience needed. Work side-by-side with expert staff on exciting, hands-on projects. We supply the tools, the know-how, and a fun experience — you make a big difference!
Friends of the Rouge now requires volunteer teams to pay a materials fee to support the costs of your impact experience. This fee covers event coordination, tools, materials, and on-the-ground education and support.
| Team Size | Materials Fee |
| 5-19 Volunteers | $250 |
| 20 or more Volunteers | $500 |
Please let us know if this is a barrier to your engagement.
Schools, scout teams, houses of worship, small nonprofits, and community club groups are excluded from this requirement.
