volunteer

What brings members of the Land Trust together is an appreciation for our environment and a love of what makes West Haven such a unique and welcoming community. If you’d like to to get more involved, protect our environment, and meet other dedicated conservationists, we’ve got plenty of ways for you to volunteer.

Join a work party

Blaze trails on new properties or help keep existing trails in shape for hikers.

Organize a community event

Each of our special events requires a team of dedicated volunteers to organize and publicize the event in order to be successful.

Be a digital LTWH booster

If you know your way around website design or Facebook — we need your help to keep our online presence strong and fun!

Help us save more land

Research and assess new land opportunities, raise funds, write grants, and work closely with town agencies.

Help us bring new members and volunteers

The more members and volunteers we recruit, the more resources we have to save and preserve beautiful spaces in West Haven. Newsletters, mailings, and email correspondence are just a few of the ways we connect with nature lovers.

Donate your professional expertise

Do you have skills in land surveying, legal counseling, fundraising, grant writing, donor development, social media, GPS, educational programs, film making, sign painting, or carpentry (or ANY expertise you feel we need), please join us!

Are you ready to pitch in?
