Neighborhood association and community area cleanups are testimony to Portlanders’ dedication as volunteers and commitment to the environmental health of our community. These cleanups provide our neighbors with an excellent opportunity to “reduce, reuse and recycle” all in one convenient location. They also provide education about community resources, opportunities for civic involvement and the benefits of collective action, working together to make a difference in our community. GO TEAM! The following are the upcoming cleanups in the Southeast area. Contact the coordinator to find out how you can make a difference in your neighborhood.
