A group of people standing outdoors on a sunny day, participating in a community cleanup event. They wear casual clothes, hats, gloves, and some have reflective vests. Several are holding large trash bags, and some have trash picking tools. Behind them, there are trees, power lines, a street sign, and a parking lot.

SOLVE Oregon

We work with SOLVE Oregon to host community clean up events in our neighborhood that:

  • Restore and preserve Oregon’s environment.

  • Mobilize the power of volunteers, partners & generosity of donors.

  • Bring diverse communities together to improve the health/safety of our neighborhoods and natural areas.

These cleanup events are ongoing.
