Apply to lead your own Community Clean-Up!
The community clean-up along the Sanderson Gulch Trail on 2/19 is a great model for how you could lead your own clean up project!
CYL is funding 10 Young Leaders in starting their own small community clean-ups! These small grant funds will help put the power in your hands to support a cleaner neighborhood. The goal of these funds are to support your community's needs to create a "quick win" project that makes it safer, easier, and/or more fun to use active transportation and be active in Denver.
Each Young Leader will receive trash clean-up materials, snacks, a how-to guide in creating their own trash clean-up, and the support of the CYL team. The youth leader whose team collects the most trash will receive a gift card in recognition of their hard work! Additionally, we are incentivizing young people who make their projects directly in their neighborhood to limit the need to drive to the project site. If you live in Green Valley Ranch, Mar Lee, Montbello, Park Hill, or Berkeley, we encourage you to apply! Youth projects hosted in other neighborhoods should certainly still apply, but know that funds can only be distributed for those taking place in the City of Denver.
