Here’s to another Spring Sweep! For 2023, we brought out 1,350 volunteers to clean at over 40 sites around Western New York.
In just two hours, those volunteers were able to remove thousands of pounds of garbage and clean up our shorelines and parks. And across the Great Lakes CleanUP, which Buffalo Niagara Waterkeeper helps lead, volunteers for Earth Day events removed tons of trash to prevent it from entering our waterways and beautifying our communities. Just amazing for such a short time of help.
If you participated in the Spring Sweep, please take a few minutes to answer questions in the survey button below. The information helps us improve and adjust the Spring Sweep every year.
