Volunteering & Interning
with SF Environment


SF Environment is out and about in the community, making a difference and having fun.


Volunteering is a simple way to give back to the community and take care of our environment. SF Environment is always looking for energetic and like-minded individuals that want to take action through our network of community based events.  Volunteers help with community outreach and door-to-door mobilizations such as Styrobusters, and our Neighborhood Compost Campaign, as well as street fairs and community events across the city.

Join us today by filling out our volunteer application.


Interning with SF Environment provides an amazing opportunity to learn first-hand about our city’s ground-breaking environmental efforts. Each program area is supported by interns who take on specific projects that contribute to the overall goals of the program. SF Environment internships provide the opportunity to gain experience working within the environmental field and build professional relationships. Many colleges offer class credit and/or compensation for these internships.
