Opportunity Details

We invite you to participate in learning how we take Action Against Hunger! This experience is scalable and designed to foster a deeper connection with our mission through interactive, educational activities. Whether you choose to host a group or have someone from our team facilitate, this event brings your colleagues together for impactful learning and engagement. Plus, we’ll provide prizes—bracelets made in the field—as a meaningful memento.

Here’s how you can get involved:

Activity Station 1: Action Against Hunger Quiz
Kick off the day with a fun, interactive quiz about global nutrition and our life-saving work. This activity promotes meaningful conversations and educates participants on surprising facts and figures. With a live leaderboard, participants can engage in some friendly competition while learning about our mission.

This opportunity is scalable, and you can incorporate additional stations such as:

Activity Station 2: ‘Guess the Ingredients of a RUTF Bar’ Challenge
Experience the life-saving power of Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food (RUTF) in this hands-on challenge. Participants will have the opportunity to feel an RUTF bar and guess the ingredients by placing their names in jars labeled with various options—some ingredients are featured in the bar, and some are not. It’s a fun way to learn about the simple, yet crucial, tools we use to combat severe acute malnutrition.

Activity Station 3: Learn About a MUAC Band
Discover how we identify malnutrition with a simple yet vital tool—the mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) band. Participants will learn how to use this tool and why it’s essential in our efforts to save lives by screening children and adults for malnutrition.

These activities can be completed together, fostering team camaraderie, or as quick individual stations that take as little as 15 minutes. Whether you participate in all stations or just one, this event offers flexible, impactful ways to engage with our mission. We ask that you provide the lunch, and we’ll bring the prizes.

Join us in these activities to raise awareness, educate, and learn how we support those most in need. Together, we can take meaningful action against hunger.

Commemorate Orca Recovery Day (ORD) 2024 with Pierce Conservation District on Saturday, October 19th, and join your neighbors from 10 AM - 12 PM as we plant this depaved space in Tacoma's Hilltop. Volunteers removed pavement from the site this May and now it's time to green it up! Come help install native and pollinator-friendly plants, meet neighbors, and make new friends as part of Orca Recovery Day!

ORD is an intentional day of action to build awareness and make a difference for Puget Sound’s local orca pod, the Southern Resident Killer Whales. Partner organizations host stewardship volunteer events around the region to promote healthy habitat for salmon, the Southern Residents' primary food source.

Removing concrete and replanting with beneficial plants not only supports wildlife such as insects and birds, but also provides a stormwater benefit by increasing the amount of planted area for rain and stormwater to soak into. As more water soaks into the ground and is used by plants with deep roots, less urban stormwater is able to carry pollutants into the storm drains and out into Puget Sound. This helps us keep our waters healthy for orcas!

This project was spearheaded by neighbors local to the space and was awarded one of Pierce Conservation District's 2024 Green Stormwater Mini Grants, with services provided by the City of Tacoma.

Join Pierce Conservation District on Saturday, October 19th, from 9 AM - 12 PM for an Orca Recovery Day (ORD) work party and event at DeCoursey Park in Puyallup. ORD is an intentional day of action to build awareness and make a difference for Puget Sound’s local orca pod, the Southern Resident Killer Whales. Partner organizations host stewardship volunteer events around the region to promote healthy habitat for salmon, the Southern Residents' primary food source.

Volunteer for 3 hours at Puyallup's Peck Property, attached to Decoursey Park, and enjoy live music and games as you help to protect and restore your local ecosystem for wildlife like Salmon, Birds, and yes, even Orcas. Activities include caring for existing plants and removing invasive species such as Himalayan blackberry, English ivy and thistle as well as installing new native plants on site. This work supports water quality, our local wildlife, and pollinators. Exact meeting location will be provided after signing up.


What will volunteers be doing at the event?

While the exact tasks at hand vary, our projects focus on improving the open spaces, forests, and parks in our local cities. Healthy ecosystems and thriving forests are vital to our community because they absorb and naturally filter rain water, produce clean oxygen, provide living spaces for wildlife, and create a place for people to connect with the outdoors.

In order to create healthy forests and riparian zones, the work can include:

- Caring for existing plantings
- Installing new native plants
- Removing invasive species such as English ivy, Himalayan blackberry, and reed canary grass.



For your safety and comfort please bring:

- Clothing that can get dirty
- Long pants and sleeves
- Sturdy shoes (closed toed shoes required, no sandals or flats)
- Rain gear and warm layers (the event will happen rain or shine)
- Full water bottle!
