Philly Spring Cleanup - Saturday, April 2


The 4th Annual Philly Spring Cleanup is taking place on Saturday, April 2 from 9:00am-2:00pm. The momentum keeps on building...so this is our year to "Keep Up the Sweep Up!" We're out to put an end to litter and illegal dumping – permanently. The UnLitter Us rally cry was heard loud and clear. It led to community education programs, stricter enforcement and block-by-block cleaning events. Let's join hands to make our neighborhoods and our City as beautiful as they can be.

Meet us at Cafe con Chocolate at 2100 S. Norwood St (Snyder Ave between 21st & 22nd St) as we clean Snyder Avenue!
