The Trail Conservancy (TTC) is a 501(c)3 dedicated to protecting, enhancing, and connecting the Ann and Roy Butler Trail at Lady Bird Lake for the benefit of all.

Through careful improvements to the Trail’s infrastructure and environment, The Trail Conservancy continues the work of the Citizen’s Committee and ensures that the heart of Austin beats on.

A 501(c)(3) is a special kind of nonprofit in the U.S. that doesn't pay certain taxes, and donations to it can be tax-deductible.

WAYS TO VOLUNTEER

Planting and Seeding

Invasive species removal

Litter abatement

It doesn't take much time to volunteer in this way, and I can feel good about myself knowing that I'm protecting the environment while I'm taking in the beauty of nature.

Why I chose to volunteer here?

I opted for this trash-picking volunteer opportunity because I believe in the importance of taking small actions that collectively make a big difference.

Title 1

My Day Volunteering !!

• Bring a refillable water bottle to stay hydrated.
• Wear comfortable weather-appropriate shoes and clothing that you do not mind getting dirty.
• We will provide all necessary materials, but you are welcome to bring your own gloves.

Requirements!

• A deeper understanding of environmental issues.
• A sense of responsibility toward your community.
• Experience personal growth.
• Teamwork

WHAT I LEARNT FROM THIS EXPERIENCE?

Don't lose this opportunity!At the end everyone is winning.Don't forget that it's not shameful to pick up trash, it's more shameful to live with it and do nothing.
