Welcome to Volunteers Cleaning Communities
Let's make our community a cleaner place for us, our neighbors, our families and the future members of our community.
Let's make our community a cleaner place for us, our neighbors, our families and the future members of our community.
We are a community-based organization focused on helping make the world around us a better, cleaner, environmental friendly, litter-free place.
With the help of amazing community volunteers, we organize cleaning events to clean our local streets of litter and through the Adopt A Highway Program we clean a 3 1/2 mile section of the 118 Freeway from the on and off ramp of Tampa to the on and off ramp of Balboa both the north and south sides.
Are you passionate about what we're doing? Let us know! We are always looking for volunteers to help us make our vision a reality. We'll help you find a way to volunteer that best suits you. - either cleaning the streets or cleaning the highway or both.
We do cleaning events at least twice a week which gives the volunteers a choice - it is great exercise, a chance to meet great like-minded volunteers, have some fun and make a difference in your community! We're excited to have you join the team!
Whether you help through monetary donations, volunteering your time, or spreading our mission through word-of-mouth, thank you.
If everyone in a community would just pick up one bag of litter a year, we would have a beautiful, clean, litter-free community to enjoy. We can't accomplish our goals without the help of supporters and interested community members like you.
The Adopt-a-Highway program, and the very similar Sponsor-a-Highway, are promotional campaigns undertaken by U.S. states, provinces and territories of Canada, and some national governments outside North America to encourage volunteers to keep a section of a highway free from litter.
The contract is for a 5-year period, with the expectation of working the highway at least twice a month to keep it clean of litter.
The only reward for this is "making a difference in the cleanliness of the highways" and a sign on your section of the highway so that drivers will know who is responsible for keeping that area clean.
Adopt A Highway Program provides safety training, all equipment, trash bags, support and oversee of accomplishments.
This weekend and every weekend we challenge EVERYONE to “take a walk, take a bag, take some trash off the streets!”
The bag should be one of your trash bags you use every day and/or a grocery bag like you get from your local market. Fill it with all the litter you find (including cigarette butts) in your selected area.
Grab your friends, your family members, your dog, your neighbors, or just go out alone on your walk and have some fun – let me know if you find something highly unique on your walk (or even money). This is a great activity to do with your kids!
After you collect your bag of litter – TAKE A PICTURE – SEND it to me at jillmather@earthlink.net or text to 818-519-7567 with THE YOUR NAME and THE CITY you collected it from.
We want this to be a every weekend day event for us – “BASH SOME TRASH” – and will be tracking your litter removal progress toward a fun contest, rewards, community recognition for your amazing efforts.
Let’s all go out and “BASH SOME TRASH” to make cleaner communities.
PLEASE SHARE THIS EVENT WITH AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN…

During the early covid pandemic, I spent time creating colored pencil drawings - one a day - of animals, birds, reptiles, etc. These drawings are being used to help fund our activities, events, upcoming mini Earth Days, School 'scavenger litter hunt" education, etc.
Please take a look at the ETSY STORE SITE. It is a way of donating and actually getting a product for the donation.
I would be proud to have it hanging on your wall or to be used as a gift.
