Duke Gardens will hold a volunteer orientation session in Spanish for Spanish-speaking volunteers next month!
The Spanish-speaking population makes up an important and vibrant part of Durham, and we love for our volunteer team to reflect the community that it serves. Would you like to be part of our volunteer family, or do you know someone who would?
As a volunteer, you will not only become more involved in the Gardens, but you will also help share all that Duke Gardens has to offer with others in the community. In addition to working in the Gardens and with adult programs, Spanish-speaking volunteers can work with children's programs offered all year.
We are looking for people who are willing to share their knowledge and who want to learn and develop interpersonal, leadership and gardening skills. Volunteer hours are flexible; whether you want to come in a few hours a month or a few hours a week, we have a volunteer opportunity that is perfect for you.
