Our cleanup was a success! We split up into smaller groups and were able to tackle the Chippewa River head on! We collected so much garbage and the area looks so much cleaner now. Thank you to everyone that came out to support our biggest cleanup yet and thank you to changeX for giving us the inital funding to provide the people with vests and sanitary precautions. We are going to continue with our smaller cleanups around the northwest suburbs...Make sure to check out our Facebook to stay updated or subscribe to our newsletter

We will have a cleanup around the Chippewa Woods River. We plan to meet in June to complete the clean up seeing as many students will be out of school at the time. We will also have better weather then. The cleanup will happen over the course of a day an we will send out different groups to different areas of the river to divide and conquer our goal. The seed funding will be used to purchase vests for our volunteers so that they can be spotted along the roads and in the woods. We will also need funding for grabbers and gloves to pick up the litter and bags to put the trash in. Finally we also plan to have water bottles at the function, when we have breaks during the cleanup. Our community will benefit from a cleaner river and environment around the woods, because upon seeing the cleanness the community is more likely to keep it clean and we are more likely to use the beautiful space that is the Chippewa River and woods for things like picnics or functions.
