Causes: Environment, Environmental Beautification
Mission: To educate and inspire our community to take action to create a clean, beautiful and waste-free midland.
Programs: We have annual community cleanups in april and october each year. We provide supplies for each volunteer group that includes trash bags, reflective vests, gloves and litter pickers. We also provide food for the volunteers after the clean up. Non-profit groups in the area sign up to clean an area assigned to them and they are paid $5 an hour per person to pick up litter. We provide the same supplies as in the community cleanups. The inmate program allows violators with lesser charges to work community service hours picking up litter while still in jail. We provide the same supplies as in the community cleanups. Local deputies monitor the inmates during the clean up and are paid for their time.
