Volunteer with FOLQ
FOLQ is a 100% volunteer organization and is always looking for new people who would be interested in supporting clean up, conservation, and beautification efforts around the lake. Consider some of the ways you might lend a hand at Lake Quannapowitt! Most of our volunteer options are family-friendly.

Wakefield resident Kris Ingersoll is FOLQ’s new goose counter, following the dedicated volunteerism of long-time counter and Board Member Bill Butler. Learn more about Kris and why FOLQ does this important work.
Become a Member or Donate
FOLQ Membership is what drives the organization. Your membership provides financial support for our organization, keeps you informed of our activities, invites you to our annual events, and helps secures its future. And individual donations from private individuals, civic groups, corporations, and foundations are vitally important to helping to renew, care, and advocate for the Lake and its surrounding valuable public green spaces.
