A cleanup is great. A community resource that helps the community organize cleanups year-round is even better.

Last Friday, more than 100 volunteers joined Pick It Up, Vancouver! and removed approximately 400 pounds of trash from downtown Vancouver. The event also celebrated an exciting milestone: Dandelion Teahouse & Apothecary is now a SOLVE Supply Hub for Southwest Washington.

The new hub makes it easier for community members to borrow cleanup supplies, lead their own projects, and take action when they see litter in their neighborhoods, parks, and waterways.

Read more about the event and how this partnership is helping grow community-led cleanups across Southwest Washington.
