South River Watershed Warriors

River Cleanup is a community initiative aiming to clean and maintain rivers across the US. A group of volunteers work together, collaborate with community stakeholders and sponsors to clean up a local river.

Why it matters

Cleaning a river helps solve the problem that millions of tons of trash cause every year. Trash is more than just an eyesore, it contaminates our drinking water and threatens the lives of all people, wildlife, and communities who depend on clean water. It is also a great way to meet your neighbors and get some fresh air.

What you can do

You can apply for funding to run a river cleanup in your local community. Once you're ready to go fill in this short form, complete the 30 Day Challenge and we'll make sure you have everything you need to get started.
