Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy

Organization Description

The mission of the Palos Verdes Peninsula Land Conservancy (PVPLC) is to "preserve land and restore habitat for the education and enjoyment of all."

Program Information

Volunteering with the Conservancy is a rewarding way to give back to the local community and environment. The peninsula is a green oasis in L.A. County, providing volunteers with the opportunity to escape the hustle and stress of the city and enjoy the natural beauty of the area. By giving your time and energy, you will be rewarded with the knowledge you have made a difference and helped the Conservancy fulfill its mission. Training and volunteer sign ups available on website under volunteer tab. Help the Conservancy restore vital habitat by planting natives and removing invasive species in various preserves around the peninsula. Public volunteer work days are on Saturdays from 9am to 12pm. Training, tools, camaraderie and beautiful scenery are provided, but bring close-toed shoes, water and sun protection.

We require that all students register and sign up at: http://pvplc.volunteerhub.com. Sign up will include their liability waiver.

All students, regardless of race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sex, gender, gender identity, and sexual orientation, are open and welcome to participate.
