Second Saturday Litter Clean-Up NW (age 5+) Referral
Join local volunteers as we clean up the litter that collects on our streets! It's amazing how much litter we pick up every month!
This monthly neighborhood clean up at NW Thurman and NW 24th is the perfect oppportunity to meet locals, pick up trash and enjoy a cup of coffee and a pastry. If enough volunteers show up we are able to clean the entire neighborhood. This is a quick volunteer activity that relieves stress and results in lots of thanks from those walking in the neighborhood.
All volunteers will be entered in a drawing to win a gift certificate, the volunteer location provides coffee and pastries for volunteers. Volunteers will be given a brief intro, and all supplies needed. Volunteers should dress in clothing appropriate for the weather.
Meet by the front door: Food Front Coop, 2375 NW Thurman St. Thanks to Food Front Coop and Legacy Good Sam Hospital, our local sponsors. Thanks to SOLV for supplies. Thanks to Neighbors West Northwest and the City of Portland Office of Neighborhood Involvement for financial support.
The Neighbors West-Northwest coalition promotes direct participation in grassroots advocacy by supporting community efforts at the neighborhood level.
