Community Cleanup Program

Overview – To sign up to volunteer, click here

WFR cleanup events typically last about one hour. RSVP is not required, just show up! Volunteers are expected to arrive a few minutes early for a brief overview and supply pickup, but showing up late or leaving early is ok too. Make sure you check in at the table before picking up litter! We provide gloves, bags, buckets and litter grabbers at every event—no need to bring your own unless preferred.

Every volunteer must complete our one-time seasonal waiver form, which can be filled out online at (Click link here) or in person at the event. Individuals under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Events are canceled in the case of moderate to severe rain, lightning, or any official weather alert. For cancellations, please refer to our social media platforms. We aim to announce all cancellations at least 2 hours in advance.

For questions or group participation, call or text our office at 585-577-4820, or email us at info@walkingforrochester.org.
