Ask a busy person... |
That's the answer to the question "If you want to get something done, whom do you ask?". It's certainly true for Green Needham and our projects to:
- Bring solar and wind power at the Needham RTS
- Help people make their homes more energy efficient
- Reduce energy use and save money
- Fight climate change
- Involve and educate the community
Would you like to help but are unsure whether you have time or would know what to do? Whether you are a beginner or an expert, whether you have a little time or a lot, we can help match your interest in the environment with a volunteer opportunity. Take the first step - talk with us. Just click here and tell us when one of our Steering Committee members can reach you for a quick phone call to explore the many possibilities of getting involved. |
