Small Actions
The power of one is essential when it comes to picking up litter in our parish. It’s a change of heart and mind when we pick up litter and set a new example.
Big Impact
When we work as a group, like we do with volunteer cleanups all over the parish, we have an effect that’s measured by the ton in fighting litter.
Be the Change
All ages. All schedules. Cleanup events by citizen volunteers are the drivers of a new culture that doesn’t stand for litter but stops to pick it up.
Be part of the movement that’s changing the culture around litter in Calcasieu Parish. It’s easier than ever to join a cleanup, report littering, or find a disposal site.
