“These volunteer opportunities give people a hands-on way to care for outdoor spaces that are part of their communities. We are proud to support experiences that bring neighbors together and help keep public lands close to home welcoming for everyone who uses them.”

Tomer Hasson, Interim Program Lead and Senior Program Officer of the Foundation for America’s Public Lands

“The public lands cared for by the Bureau of Land Management are America’s largest and hardest working neighbor, and in Southern California we’re fortunate to have so much public land close to home. SoCalGas’ support shows what businesses, public land managers, partners and local communities can accomplish together, giving more people opportunities to get outside and care for the places they love.”
