Through dynamic programming, we visit classrooms and civic meetings across Philadelphia to speak about recycling, waste reduction and how we can build a litter-free city together. We serve as a resource and convener for civic organizations and passionate neighborhood leaders. And we activate hundreds of Philadelphians to roll up their sleeves to paint, plant, weed and yes, pick up litter.
