These community clean-ups complement the awesome mahi of the street cleaning team and contribute to the City Safety and Wellbeing Plan. The clean-ups include litter collection, a deep street clean and graffiti removal. Equipment will be provided. Volunteers are asked to just bring good vibes and weather-appropriate clothing. Volunteers can come along for the morning or just for a short stint.
