Usually held at the end of March each year, thousands of volunteers gather at several locations throughout Broward County to help clean our waterways. The March 2000 event was a success as more than 3,500 volunteers turned out to collect 68 tons of trash.
Students can also earn community service hours for their help.
The Waterway Cleanup is an easy way to make a visible difference in our environment and community and is an event the whole family can enjoy. The Great Florida Cleanup - Broward Beautiful is an advisory board appointed by the Broward County Commission dedicated to beautification and litter control throughout Broward County. As an official affiliate of Keep America Beautiful, Inc. , Broward Beautiful participates in an annual, county-wide beautification and litter pickup that takes place every spring. The day-long event includes removal of debris from Broward County's ocean environment by both scuba divers and beach walkers. International Coastal Cleanup - Broward County participates in the planet's largest volunteer cleanup effort on behalf of the marine environment each year.
