2026 Volunteer Orientation

Interested in volunteering with UpstreamPgh?

Volunteers play a vital role in helping to keep our rain gardens healthy and our watershed beautiful. Join us to learn about all our volunteer opportunities – from our Urban EcoStewards program in Frick Park to field trips with local schools or sharing your photography skills to help us tell the story of a project or event. Join us at our office and learn about our organization!

After the presentation at our office, we’ll go on a short walk (approximately 0.8 miles), to visit two of our green stormwater infrastructure sites. First we’ll stop by Nancy’s Diner to see one of our smallest projects. Then we’ll walk over to the Wilkinsburg Stormwater Resiliency Project (WSRP) on South Ave to view one of our largest rain gardens!
