VOLUNTEER WITH KAB
A clean, green, and more beautiful Alamogordo doesn't happen without your help. Sign up for a volunteer project today!
Each year the 24 square miles of Alamogordo parks are cleaned, greened, and made beautiful. We are the ones that laugh with friends as we pick up litter off our City parks and roadways. Get dirty planting tress, flowers, and shrubbery. Smile while rolling on paint on fencing, buildings, and covering graffiti.
BUT, HOW DO WE DO IT?
With you of course! KAB heavily relies on volunteers who are proud to call our community home, want to make a positive impact on our greenspaces, and takes ownership of the environment around us.
MAKE AN IMPACT:
Volunteers from all over Alamogordo and the surrounding areas work all over the City of Alamogordo ending littering, improving recycling, and beautifying our community! Let us provide the tools if you will provide your passion for our community.
GAIN EXPERINCE AND EXPERTISE:
Our KAB Team instructs our volunteers so that way you can use what you learn and the hand on experiences in your own lives and homes.
BE PART OF A TEAM:
Join like minded people who care about our community and environment for a cleaner, greener, and more beautiful Alamogordo!
KAB offers many programs and volunteer-led projects that have a positive impact on our community.
PLANTINGS AND NATIVE HABITATS:
We believe a beautiful city needs more than asphalt, buildings, and concrete. Volunteer at a planting or habitat restoration project to help create a cleaner, greener, and more beautiful landscape!
BEAUTIFICATION:
Beautification is more than just making areas look good with plants, trees, and vegetation, or new paint, or removing litter. We want civic pride to shine through with each project. Join us at a Great Alamo Cleanup, Adopt-A-Spot, Curb Your Tree, or a Litter Free Event to make Alamogordo cleaner, greener, and more beautiful.
ENGAGING IN THE COMMUNITY:
We don't just organize volunteers; we rely on them. From youth, to civic groups; neighbors to corporate partners, there is a place for folks of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds at our volunteer projects. KAB volunteers are more than just regular volunteers #WeAreKAB.
PROJECT CALENDAR
Head to our ever-changing volunteer project calendar to sign up for a project involving ending littering, improving recycling, or beautifying our community. Register as an individual or as a group.
CUSTOM CARING DAYS:
For youth groups, civic groups, or business who want to have a greater impact by committing both volunteers and funding/in-kind donations to KAB, we create and coordinate Custom Caring Days for your team year-round.
LITTER FREE EVENTS:
Community Events in our community means trash. Litter Free Events help make sure your community event is litter free. You can sign up to have your event become a Litter Free Event or you can sign up to participate in a Litter Free Event.
ADOPT-A-SPOT:
Ready to take your level of commitment to our community the next level? Commit to keeping an area in our city clean by adopting a sot to call your own, and you can come get supplies today!
GREAT ALAMO CLEANUP:
Join KAB for the biggest event of the spring! Help eliminate litter, improve recycling, eradicating unsightly weeds or graffiti, or beautify our community in other ways. Join us for the Great Alamo Cleanup in conjunction with the Great American Cleanup beginning in March every year!
KAB AMBASSADORS:
So you got your hands dirty planting or cleaning up, and now you're looking for a bigger commitment? Great! Join our Ambassadors team to get more involved. Ambassadors help lead teams and at times events and promote KAB in our community!
SHRUB TENDERS:
If plants, trees, and shrubs are your thing, this group is for you. Shrub Tenders help our Community Arborists take care of the vegetation we plant and can lead plantings.
VOLUNTEER PATCHES
Beginning in 2021, KAB will launch a new volunteer incentive program... Patches. Keeping Alamogordo beautiful requires people, to put in the work. KAB doesn't want that effort to go unnoticed. The more you volunteer with KAB, the more patches you can earn. The more patches you earn the more likely you are to receive the Standout Volunteer Patch.
Patches are to be ironed on your KAB Volunteer Vest you receive when you sign up to be a volunteer with KAB.
