Custom Volunteer Days for Groups
Volunteer as a Youth, Student or Corporate Group
Corporate, Business or Adult Teams
RMFI stewardship days are great team-building activities and a way for teams to give back to the Pikes Peak Region in a highly rewarding opportunity. If your place of work, or other type of business group has multiple people who would like to volunteer together, RMFI provides opportunities to schedule a custom group workday for just your team! Custom scheduling is best for group sizes between 10 and 40, and we request a time commitment of at least 4 hours between the hours of approximately 8am and 3pm between Tuesday and Saturday.
Youth or Student Ages Groups
RMFI stewardship days are great volunteer and education opportunities for classes, student groups or youth groups! RMFI provides opportunities to schedule a custom group workday for classes with students between 5th Grade and College and youth groups with kids over the age of 11! Custom scheduling is best for group sizes between 10 and 40, and we request a time commitment of at least 4 hours between the hours of approximately 8am and 3pm between Tuesday and Saturday.
