Program Details
Each month, the Houston Zoo invites guests and community members to take part in hands-on saving-wildlife activities that help restore the outdoor places our community loves.
Join Houston Zoo’s Neighbors for Nature for a community cleanup at Charles Milby Park in Houston, Texas on Saturday, September 26. Help restore a local green space, support urban wildlife, and make a positive impact in our community.
Activities are family-friendly, accessible, and designed so that every effort makes a difference for communities and local wildlife. We’ll provide guidance, tools, and support. You just bring your love for wildlife and willingness to help.
About Umuganda
Neighbors for Nature was inspired by Umuganda, a monthly community service tradition in Rwanda practiced by our saving-wildlife partners. These events take place on the last Saturday of each month, when communities come together to complete projects that strengthen neighborhoods and support the greater good.
