Greenbuild Volunteers

Each year, Greenbuild selects students and emerging professionals to support the show’s waste diversion goals and application for TRUE Zero Waste for Events certification. In exchange for a total of 8 hours of work in person during the conference, volunteers receive complimentary admission to participate in education sessions, network with industry professionals, and learn about the innovations in green building technology on the Expo floor. Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis. Candidates will be contacted in summer 2025 with confirmation of their acceptance or decline in the program and appropriate next steps. Learn more about eligibility requirements for the 2025 Greenbuild Volunteer cohort.

Apply today.

Each year Greenbuild’s volunteer program brings together students and emerging professionals under 30 to help drive our sustainability mission forward. From supporting waste diversion onsite to learning alongside the leaders of the green building movement, volunteers play a vital role in making Greenbuild possible.

This year we want to see Greenbuild through your lens.

Think “a day in the life” and capture moments like:

• Behind the scenes of your role supporting our sustainability efforts
• A glimpse into keynotes, workshops or sessions you attended
• Interactions with fellow volunteers and event organizers
• Candid moments from the Welcome Reception or networking events
• Highlights of Greenbuild’s sustainable features like recycling stations or eco-friendly setups

We’re watching for your photos and videos. Just post to LinkedIn or Instagram using the #GreenbuildVolunteer and help us spotlight the impact of this incredible community.
