Stop Trashing Jackson

The City of Jackson and Keep Jackson Beautiful are teaming up to launch “Stop Trashing Jackson”. This is a citywide cleanup event…aimed at restoring our streets and neighborhoods. On March 4th, we are asking residents to join us. Roll up your sleeves and help rid our city of litter. In order for this cleanup campaign to be successful, we need the support of everyone. Individuals, school groups, churches, volunteer and civic organizations, and more are all invited to get their hands a little dirty. Taking ownership of our streets, parks, and neighborhoods is the first step in demanding the respect our city deserves.

7:30am - 8:45am - Registration for supplies

9:00am - 1:30pm - Cleanup Work

2:00pm - Lunch will be served
