The City of Philadelphia Streets Department will hold the 10th annual Philly Spring Cleanup on Saturday, April 8th from 9 AM to 2 PM.
Last year’s Philly Spring Clean Up 2016 removed over 600,000 pounds of trash from the streets of Philadelphia thanks to thousands of volunteers.
Applications for cleanup projects are online and will remain open until March 24th, 2017. The city will be able to offer limited supplies so you can request trash bags, rakes, paint brushes, gloves, shovels, and brooms.
Soon, volunteers will be able to register for posted projects on the Philly Spring Cleanup website.
Volunteer for the 2017 Philly Spring Cleanup and visit Serve Philadelphia for more volunteer opportunities to give back to the Philadelphia community throughout the year.
