June 3rd to June 11th
Volunteer for a Blitz Cleanup
Litter – it’s everywhere! You see it on our streets, in our parks, on our shorelines, and in the water. Blown by the wind on trash day, tossed out car windows, intentionally dumped — however it gets there, it’s an eyesore and bad for the environment.
The Blitz is a week-long outdoor cleanup event that brings together hundreds of volunteers with one goal in mind – keeping our land and water clean by removing litter from our neighborhoods. From bags, bottles, and butts to tires and larger items, Blitz volunteers make a big difference for cleaner communities.
Join us at a Blitz cleanup! We need volunteers for cleanups happening June 3rd to June 11th at various locations throughout Ocean County and parts of southern Monmouth County. Here’s how you can help.
