Each year, community members gather to beautify our area by collecting garbage accumulated throughout Hopewell Township. It’s a great day for the Township and non-profits to take pride in our town by coming together to help clean it up. As a bonus, organizations can earn money for their time!
Hopewell Township Clean Sweep is part of the New Jersey Clean Communities program, which was started in 1986 with the passage of the Clean Community Act. It is grant-funded and promotes litter cleanup throughout the state. Protective gear is provided, and participants earn an hourly wage for their organizations. It’s a great way to get involved in your neighborhood and learn about litter abatement.
Hopewell Township Clean Sweep Day is on Saturday, October 5, rain or shine. Meet at the Public Works Building at 203 Washington Crossing Pennington Road at 9am. Your group will receive protective gear, the tools needed, and an assigned area. Be sure to bring water, snacks, and sunscreen! Optional for this year- you can choose your clean-up area ahead of time! Go to www.hopewelltwp.org/cleansweep.
