Earth Day Fairfax is happening on Saturday, April 26 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Sully Historic site in Chantilly, Virginia. Earth Day Fairfax is the County’s largest Earth Day celebration, and we are seeking volunteer support to make this annual event a success!

Join us for a daylong event featuring games, entertainment, exhibits, workshops, vendors and activities geared toward increasing our understanding and enjoyment of the world around us. The event attracts nearly 5,000 people from across Fairfax County annually. Volunteers are needed to fill shifts throughout the day in a variety of capacities, including: 

• Set-up attendants
• Check-in greeters 
• Nature and recreation activity attendants 
• Guest assistance  

This is a fantastic service opportunity for students seeking service hours or community members looking to give back. Through a variety of service activities, volunteers will impact community and planetary health while having fun throughout the day!

All volunteers must be 15 years old or older. Multiple shifts are available to accommodate scheduling needs. For additional detail in individual volunteer opportunities and to sign up, visit the Volunteer Fairfax website .
