Opportunity Details
Hills and Habitats: Volunteer Event
Join us for a great opportunity, learning about native plants and local wildlife, all while spending time outdoors in beautiful Baldwin Hills Parklands.
Why: Efforts support the upkeep of popular green space in a central urban area that supports the local community. Volunteers will learn about this once drilled and exploited land, which has now become a symbol of restoration, conservation, and hope.
Who: Nature Nexus Institute (NNI) is founded on the belief that reciprocity between communities and nature is essential to the survival of both. We seek to provide equitable and intergenerational entry points to cultivating healthy community-nature relationships. To that end, we strive to be a nexus for science, culture, art, and research endeavors that result in a new generation of change-makers and storytellers.
