Volunteer
Volunteers participate in a lake clean up in Crotona Park in the Bronx
We encourage New Yorkers to get involved in caring for our parks and open spaces!
New Yorkers for Parks' primary volunteer program is via the Play Fair Coalition, a 500+ member coalition calling for transformative investment in our city's parks system.
Click here to sign up to advocate with Play Fair, either as an individual volunteer or a representative of an organization. You can also get in touch with NY4P's Director of Advocacy and Policy, Kathy Park Price at kparkprice@ny4p.org.
