The OEC's annual Green Gala is the premier environmental-conservation event in Ohio. Last year our crowd of over 400 included lawmakers, statewide environmental groups, business leaders, and community activists. More than just a celebration of our successes spanning the past 48 years, the Green Gala is also an opportunity to continue building towards a greener future.

Event volunteers like you make this all possible by assisting with all aspects of the event--from prep, to setup, to check-in, and more. In exchange, our volunteers get to learn more about the OEC, meet staff and partners, and learn more about nonprofits. Volunteers who can commit to at least 6 hours can attend the Gala for free (a $50 value), and get dinner, drinks, and the opportunity to win great prizes in our silent auction.

Volunteers are needed from Monday 10/31-Thursday 11/2 at the OEC office in Grandview. On Friday 11/3 volunteers are needed at our office and at the event venue, COSI, in downtown Columbus. Volunteers are needed on Saturday 11/4 at COSI.
