Community clean-ups

Bring your neighbours, colleagues or classmates together for a common cause -cleaning up our community. Neighbourhood clean-ups provide an opportunity for people to get involved in making their streets, parks and open spaces litter-free. One small act can make a big difference!

Follow the steps below to get started on organizing your clean-up.

We welcome as many people as possible to participate in the community clean up, please note supplies are limited to 50 people.

Supplies for 50 people include 1 pair of gloves per person and 1 garbage bag shared by 2 people.

Please reach to us directly if you have a group larger than 50 people.
