The NYU Wagner DC Alumni Network will volunteer with the Potomac Conservancy as part of the broader "Wagner Day of Service," a Wagner-wide initiative focused on volunteerism and community service.  

Kick off the spring season with an OPTIONAL  5K run/walk and/or trash cleanup hosted by Potomac Conservancy, parkrun, Friends of Theodore Roosevelt Island, American Rivers and the National Park Service! DC alumni volunteers will gather for brunch following the day of service (location TBD). 

This event will take place at Theodore Roosevelt Island, one of our favorite local areas along the Potomac River. Your free tickets also includes light snacks, water, and everything else you need to have a successful run/walk and cleanup.
