Become a “Chesapeake Steward” with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation. The foundation is currently accepting applications for its Richmond area adult education course, VoiCes (Volunteers as Chesapeake Stewards). 

The eight-week series of evening classes features a program taught by local professionals and experts focusing on the Chesapeake Bay and James River, water and wastewater issues, the watershed and citizen action. Participants are asked to perform a minimum of 40 hours of bay-related volunteer service to receive the full designation as a “Chesapeake Steward.” 

RVAgreen encourages conservation and support of the natural world and natural resources including water resources. You can read more about how water conservation, stormwater and wastewater all interact in the city’s sustainability plan.
