Mayor Walsh wants you to help clean up our neighborhood! 

Let Boston Shines help organize a neighborhood clean-up or a day of community service for your co-workers. Join the team and help paint a community center, plant flowers, sweep, rake and pick up trash to make our community more beautiful.  For the past ten years, over 5,000 volunteers have come together for two days in the spring to participate in a citywide clean up event.   The City of Boston is hoping to expand volunteerism and focus on the following four areas: physical service, university engagement, youth development and expanding City of Boston volunteer opportunities that help unite neighbors and communities.  So get involved!

South Boston neighborhood clean up days: Friday, April 29th  and Saturday, April 30th
