SPU-led All Hands Cleanups

SPU is proud to partner with a wide range of community partners to host a series of All Hands Neighborhood Cleanups. From March to November, we’ll beautify seven Seattle neighborhoods with ten cleanups, tackling litter and graffiti to create a more welcoming city. 

Volunteers cleaning up at various locations with the text All Hands Neighborhood Cleanup.

Host a Cleanup

The Adopt a Street Program provides free cleanup supplies to support you in cleaning up your street — whether that is a solo venture or one you’d like to invite others to join. It starts with signing up! “Adopt” references caring for your street — and this can be a one-time effort or something you do on the regular. Totally up to you and whatever you’re up for. You can learn more about how Adopt a Street works here
