Description

 

Join us on April 2nd for Algiers Clean Sweep hosted by the Algiers Economic Development Foundation, District C City Councillor Freddie King, III, Algiers Neighborhood Presidents Council, and the University of Holy Cross. Algiers Clean Sweep is a community-wide day of service. Volunteers are needed for the following clean up efforts: 

Volunteer Registration Table:

Help us welcome volunteers, collect liability forms, replenish refreshments, answer questions, and coordinate volunteers throughout the day from the Algiers Clean Sweep Staging Area (location TBA). 

Clean Sweep Headquarters:

Volunteers are needed to help direct traffic to the appropriate areas for disposal and answer questions throughout the day.

Neighborhood Clean Up: 

We encourage each unique and beautiful community in Algiers to gather volunteers to clean up trash in their neighborhoods. We welcome a little neighborly rivalry: which neighborhood can collect the most trash in one day?

Who can sign up? We welcome all volunteers, whether you live, work, or play in Algiers or are just visiting for the day. 

Neighborhood Teams: 

Get your neighbors together and tackle litter in your neighborhood! Register as a team and let us know where you're working. Neighborhood teams can meet at the Algiers Clean Sweep Staging Area for trash bags, gloves, masks, and refreshments during the kickoff ceremony at 9:00 a.m. and for additional supplies throughout the day.

Individual Volunteers: 

Need to join a team? Sign up as an individual and we'll be happy to find you a way to serve Algiers! Please report day-of to the volunteer registration table. 

Corporate Volunteers: 

Get out of the office and get to work! Corporate teams may sign up as a group and will be assigned to a location. Corporate teams can meet at the Algiers Clean Sweep Staging Area (location TBA) for trash bags, gloves, masks, and refreshments during the kickoff ceremony at 9:00 a.m. and for additional supplies throughout the day.

Can't volunteer this day, but need to drop off old tires, glass, paper for shredding, trash, or other debris? No problem! You can drop it off at our staging site.
