Opportunities to Make a Difference

Volunteer with Friends of the Rappahannock!

FOR’s work wouldn’t be what it is today without the contributions of our volunteers and members. Everyone is welcome to volunteer – no previous experience is required and there is something for everyone to get involved and make an impact on their river and community!
