Our Plan To
Eliminate #dirtystreets
Launched in 2021 Expanding in 2023

We're teaming up with people like you to eliminate Brooklyn's #dirtystreets problem.
4-step plan for your block
-
Commit: Seven properties signup for sweeping and trash-curbing services on one street block.
-
Clean: Empowered by these properties, Foot Soldiers will:
-
Remove litter from the sidewalk, curb, and catch basins.
-
Install a dog waste station and anti-poop signs in tree pits.
-
-
Engage: Help spread the word!
-
Share this page and post photos and videos of dirty streets on social media with the hashtag #dirtystreets.
-
Send a letter of support to your local elected officials.
-
-
Involve: Get your neighbor, block association, employer, local businesses, and elected officials involved.
-
Volunteer below to clean a block.
-
Sponsor #dirtystreets.
-
Donate the monthly fee to a block that needs one more property.
-
-
#dirtystreets isn't just littering; we support environmental justice causes including groups like Children of Promise, NYC, a nonprofit fighting other forms of dirt, such as children of incarcerated parents. What happens to them? We give 25% of all donations to support local causes while creating cleaning volunteer opportunities.

Let's transform and replicate in Manhattan, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island!
