How You Can Help
The Stuyvesant Cove Park Association,
Inc. is a support organization helping to raise funds and recruit volunteers needed to
maintain the Stuyvesant Cove Park and to sponsor programs in
the park.
To accomplish
this task, funds are needed to provide maintenance and security of the
park and support on-going programs in Solar One, the classroom for environmental studies.
The Community Environmental Center, Inc. is actively reaching out to
foundations, corporations, and federal, state, and city sources
of funding, but they are also asking us to assist them as community
partners. |

Park
Angels
Park
Angels volunteer on a regular time schedule each month to
oversee a particular planting bed and habitat. They keep
their area clear of litter using materials supplied by the
Community Environmental Center. They report graffiti, damage
to the plants, park furniture, etc. for speedy correction.
As our program develops, other opportunities will be available. |
Docents
Docents
provide information to park users about the programs, future
activities, and opportunities for volunteering. When the
park opens, there will be a temporary classroom where docents
will provide maps for self-guided tours, membership forms
to the Stuyvesant Cove Park Association, Inc., and information
about donor giving. Again, as our program develops, docent
duties will expand. |
Community
Outreach
Community
Outreach volunteers seek members to join the Stuyvesant
Cove Park Association, Inc. by serving as building captains
in their apartment complex. Captains inform their neighbors
by slipping membership information under doors and talking
to neighbors. Volunteers can help with mailings to potential members
and also help to get out periodic newsletters and special
events announcements to SCPA members. |
Fundraising
Working
with the Board of the Stuyvesant Cove Park Association,
volunteers are needed to help plan and carry out fund raising
in a variety of ways. People with grant writing experience
are especially welcome as are those who have helped to produce
special events like benefits boat trips, recognition dinners,
or participated in other types of fund raising. |
