TU Training: Running a Community Trash Cleanup

From April 22 through May 1, TU is celebrating Earth Day, Arbor Day and National Volunteer week the best way we know how, by hosting volunteer tree plantings across the country. We're asking all of our chapters to join in the fun by planning a trash cleanup event and adding it to our national calendar. 

We’ll do our part by launching a national marketing campaign around the events to help drive new and excited volunteers your way. 

To help kick off the campaign, we’re hosting a special training on how to plan a community trash cleanup and add it to the national TU trash cleanup calendar on Wednesday, March 20th at 8 p.m. Eastern. 

So start talking to your board members, connect with TU staff in your region, and consider partnering with neighboring chapters or other community groups to identify a potential trash cleanup area in your home waters. If you've already got a planting planned, even better, simply learn how to add it to the calendar to benefit from the national marketing effort.
