Volunteer Opportunity Details:

The Garden House Apartments at Weinberg Campus have begun a journey to becoming a more environmentally friendly residence. The Garden House "Go Green" recycling program offers tenants the opportunity to help reduce trash and waste by recycling plastic bottles, containers, and paper. The eco-ambassador picks up the individual recycle bins from the residents and takes them to the recycling center. The eco-ambassador also offers insight and education to the tenants about products that can be recycled or re-used and other ways to assist with "greening up" the apartments.

A health physical, Tuberculosis (PPD) test, and criminal background check may be required.
