Join Us! Celebrate Earth Day and join the Clean Up the Village in the Village of Richmond Hill BIA.

This event is part of the City of Richmond Hill’s Clean Up, Green Up Richmond Hill and we are looking for volunteers of all ages to make downtown Richmond Hill a better place.

🥰 Why Clean Up?

Our goal is to make Richmond Hill amazing by collecting all the garbage and recycling that may have blown away on regular garbage days. You will have the opportunity to make new friends, get your student hours (if you are a student) and do something nice for your community.

🤔 Who can volunteer?

Volunteers of all ages are needed. Families and anyone who wants to make downtown Richmond Hill better. We will provide gloves, garbage and recycling bags to all volunteers. Clean-up supervisors will be responsible for ensuring that each small group of volunteers cleans certain streets in the Richmond Hill BIA.

If you are interested in being a Clean Up Supervisor (adults), please let us know in your email. You will get up to 2 streets and 4-6 volunteers to manage.
