Engagement Levels
Steward: Join us for an in person volunteer event or join us for our virtual opportunity, Nature in your Neighborhood, scheduled on a day of your choosing.
​
Donation: For corporate volunteer groups, we do ask for a $40 donation per person to help support our conservation work.
These donations go directly toward things like tools, supplies, and keeping our trails and habitats in good shape while keeping these green spaces open to the community we serve.
If your company is in a position to give more, we also welcome larger contributions — typically in the $1,000 to $10,000 range — which help us make an even bigger impact.
​
Sutro Stewards is a project of the San Francisco Parks Alliance, a 501(c)(3) organization. All donations are tax-deductible. You may request a fee waiver if your organization is a non-profit or otherwise unable to contribute to event costs.
