Veterans Memorial Gardener


Veterans Memorial Gardener

Time commitment 2 hours/month.


Participation will be in-person.


We are seeking 2 volunteers for this role.


Volunteers should have an interest in gardening.

The Alumni Association maintains a Memorial Garden on campus   (learn more here)  dedicated to our alumni veterans and their families. This is a peaceful space that is open to the public, and as an act of respect for those who have served we would like to keep this space clean and appropriately decorated. We are looking for two volunteers willing to take time roughly once per month to beautify the garden for future visitors.

Duties & Responsibilities


Visit the Memorial Garden once per month.
This can be done at any time, on the volunteer's own schedule.
Clear any debris, pull weeds, trim greenery, and wipe the memorial stones.
On special holidays, such a Memorial Day, place flowers or other appropriate decorations.
Communicate any needs found with the Veterans Committee in order to continue the upkeep of the Garden.

Interested in volunteering? Send an email to our Veterans Committee at veterans@rooseveltalumni.org with the subject line "Veterans Memorial Gardener" to learn more.
We can't wait to have you join us!
