WRV completes 200+ restoration projects annually, with over 3,500 volunteer attendances and engaging 500+ diverse youth in service learning.
WRV's mission is to build diverse communities that care for the land.
In 1999, about 20 people gathered to plant willows around Heron Pond at Pella Crossing, near Longmont. From this humble beginning grew a corps of thousands of dedicated volunteers. These generous folks donate approximately $950,000 worth of time and expertise to restore Colorado's beloved natural heritage at about 200 projects each year.
We now have a diverse Youth & Families Program and a comprehensive leadership development program. We have accomplished over 2,250 projects, hosted 67,000 volunteers, and facilitated the contribution of $16.5 million worth of volunteer time and expertise to the restoration and stewardship of our most beloved natural areas.
WRV sees a high success rate, and the public land agencies with which we work express great satisfaction with our projects, repeatedly ask for our help, and recommend us to other agencies. WRV is also involved in innovating and testing new restoration techniques, such as new designs of erosion control structures and natural forms of high-alpine transplant protection. WRV has a long track record of project design & implementation safely and on budget.
