ⓘ This program is open to community members and KNH volunteers alike. KNH volunteers sign up using Better Impact software (From under the OPPORTUNITIES TAB choose: COMMUNITY PROGRAMS | Community Cleanup). Community participants need to email gemmah@kitshouse.org to let her know they are coming.
This is a volunteer-led initiative held on the second Saturday of each month, dedicated to keeping local parks and public spaces clean, cared for, and welcoming. Kits House has adopted Connaught Park through the City of Vancouver’s stewardship program, making it the main site for cleanups, though the group occasionally branches out into nearby areas.
This program offers a simple and meaningful way for community members to come together in shared responsibility for the environment, fostering a sense of pride and connection through collective action.
As a thank-you, volunteers receive a coupon for a delicious treat from a local food spot.
Meet up with the team leader(s) in front of Kits House. All equipment required for the cleanup is provided.
We’d like to extend a big thank you to local business Nat’s Pizzaria, Sip of Life, and White Spot on Broadway for their generous support of the Community Cleanups. We greatly appreciate their commitment to helping create a greener, cleaner Kitsilano and for helping build a stronger, more connected community.
