Volunteer with Common Ground Relief

Join over 70,000 volunteers who have already made a difference in the wetlands of Southeast Louisiana. Volunteers are welcomed to engage with our work at any level, from just a few hours to an entire week, or every week!

Experience the Magic of the Wetlands

Join Us in Stewarding Our Land and Community. 

CGR hosts thousands of individuals, school groups, corporate events, religious groups, volunteer associations, and more each year. CGR creates opportunities for folks to experience the wetlands of coastal Louisiana, often for the very first time. Through this guided experience, CGR staff will educate volunteers on the unique biodiversity and hydrology of our massive deltaic plain, the deep cultural and natural history of our region spanning several thousand years, and modern innovations and discoveries that have contributed to land loss and illuminated our residents to the priceless value of our surrounding wetlands. Our volunteer programs offer unique opportunities for both group and individual experiences, combining impactful work with cultural exploration.
