Help Cleanup Forsyth County

Your help is needed to help remove litter from the roadways around Cumming and Forsyth County.

In anticipation of Earth Day, which is April 22, Keep Forsyth County Beautiful encourages everyone to organize a group of volunteers or come as an individual to help remove litter from the roadways in our community as part of the Keep America Beautiful Great American Cleanup on Saturday, April 20.

“This annual cleanup event, held in conjunction with the nationwide Great American Cleanup, is a fantastic opportunity for citizens, community organizations, businesses or clubs to really make a positive impact on our community,” said Tammy Wright, environmental program manager.

“It is always great to see the community come together for events such as this, to help make our county the best it can be.”
