In early April, the Clean Up Columbia initiative was launched to align with Litter Awareness Month, highlighting the importance of teamwork, education, and proactive strategies aimed at fostering a cleaner and more sustainable environment for all residents. The City of Columbia encouraged individuals of all ages to take an active role in maintaining their communal spaces through various cleanup events and educational campaigns focused on litter awareness.
To enhance the effectiveness of this program, the City partnered with local organizations, including Keep Maury Beautiful and the Triple C’s, which stands for Columbia Community Clean-Up Team. Together, they organized two significant cleanup events that took place on April 12th in East Columbia and April 26th in the vibrant Arts District of the city. Equipped with all necessary tools and supplies, volunteers came together to make a difference, successfully collecting around 75 bags of litter from the streets of Columbia. The results of these efforts left a noticeable and positive impact on the community. Overall, the Clean Up Columbia program proved to be a resounding success, surpassing expectations and fostering a sense of pride among the residents.
