Downtown Cleanup - Tom McCall Waterfront Park
Portland is a strong, resilient city, but it needs help. Join SOLVE for a day of downtown litter cleanups to beautify our city, keep our waterways clean, and protect local wildlife from the harmful effects of trash. Enjoy the sights of downtown Portland and know that the work you are engaging in has many benefits for our community, our local businesses, and our environment! Please note that this event is a litter cleanup and will not include graffiti removal.
This event was made possible through support from CBRE, Turner Construction Company, NAIOP Oregon, and Aspect on Sixth. SOLVE also would like to give thanks to our partners at the Portland Business Alliance and the Portland Lodging Alliance.
