Join us for the biggest citywide clean up in Dayton!
Last year we had over 800 volunteers serve across 32 neighborhoods to pick up 136+ tons of trash & debris from the streets of Dayton. Will you join us for this year’s clean up? We are excited to announce that we will be partnering with Rebuilding Together Dayton and the Downtown Dayton partnership with First Bloom.
