Green Starts Here!

 GAC logo

For more than twenty years, volunteers have improved the Tampa Bay area during Keep America Beautiful’s Great American Cleanup. Keep Tampa Bay Beautiful recruits volunteers, site captains, area managers and local sponsors to foster unity and strengthen community bonds through beautification and improvement efforts across Hillsborough County. This local community improvement program,  brings the power of volunteers and sponsors together to inspire change and build sustainable, vibrant communities.

The theme – Green Starts Here – is a call to action to create more viable communities by focusing volunteer efforts on activities surrounding waste reduction, recycling, beautification and community greening. Any individual, family, school, group, place of worship, business or government entity can coordinate or participate.

Volunteers are invited to the After Trash Beach Bash sponsored by HMSHost at Hogan’s Beach (7700  W Courtney Campbell Causeway) from 12pm to 2pm to say thank you for helping to Keep Tampa Bay Beautiful. Volunteers are welcome to enjoy this free after party which includes music, lunch, games, and fun! All volunteers must provide their  own transportation.

A variety of projects and locations are available throughout Hillsborough County. Check-in begins at 8:30am  and projects begin at 9:00am at sites from Odessa to Ruskin, Tampa to Plant  City.

 Contact us for more information on how to get involved or become a site captain.
