Downtown Clean-ups

Want to get involved? Join us for one of our many downtown clean-ups. We focus on public parks, playgrounds, and wherever else there is a need. Led by the founders of Rochester Rise Up, these clean-up days are a great way to meet your neighbors, clean up an area in need, and make a difference in the community. Bring your rakes, shovels, and gloves!
