The Safe, Clean, & Green Committee of the Kutztown Community Partnership was established approximately 10 years ago by a KU alum who decided to make Kutztown his home and wanted to volunteer. Keeping the town looking beautiful was important to him, and the Sunday Cleanup was born.
Each Sunday, from 11:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m., volunteers pick up the provided supplies – gloves, trash bags, dust pans and brooms – and they focus on cleaning up around downtown Kutztown. Areas include Main Street and the offshoot side streets and alleys. Special cleanups are done if there is a problematic area or if there was an event that calls for special attention afterward.
Cleanup coordinator and KU student Victoria Nagy says that the group, which consists primarily of students, wants people to know that it isn’t only students responsible for the litter and debris left behind from week-to-week, and she would love for residents to become involved as well.
Overseen by Borough Councilwoman Arabel Elliott, the Safe, Clean, & Green Committee invites any and all residents to participate and work together toward the common goal of a safe and clean environment for everyone in the community.
To get involved, call or E-mail Victoria and visit us on Facebook.
