Would your team like to make a greater impact on the Rouge River?
Many corporate teams and other organizational groups have volunteered with Friends of the Rouge to accomplish great goals for clean water. We invite your team to join us too!

Friends of the Rouge requests that these volunteer teams pay a materials fee to support the costs of your environmental 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

Schools, scout teams, houses of worship, small nonprofits, and community club groups are exempt from the materials fee request. If the materials fee is a barrier to your team’s engagement, please let us know. Any volunteer is welcome at any pre-scheduled and open workdays throughout the year.
