2010 is the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, so we're getting back to the basics with this year's theme. Reduce is the first step in the reduce, reuse, recycle plan. Reduce from the beginning and you'll have less to recycle in the end.
Volunteer & Make A Difference
Wilmington's Earth Day Alliance is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting our planet through environmental education and awareness. This is a small group of volunteers who give freely of their time in order to make the organization — and the annual celebration — a success.
There are a lot of different volunteer opportunities with Wilmington's annual Earth Day Celebration. Whether you're available during the celebration itself — or a different day of the year — there's something for everyone. When was the last time you volunteered? The rewards are endless. Giving just a few hours of your time really does make a difference. Volunteering gives us all a sense of community involvement and can help us build incredible, life-long relationships.
If you would like to get involved as a volunteer, please contact us for more information and for an opportunity that fits your schedule.
You can also participate in Wilmington's Earth Day Celebration as an exhibitor, a sponsor, or even just by attending. This is a great way to spend a day with family and friends. For more information on becoming an exhibitor or a sponsor, please contact Shannon Culpepper of the Earth Day Alliance.
