A Grand Rapids Tradition Since 2009

Sponsor the 2026 Community Cleanup!

Since 2009, the Community Cleanup has mobilized residents and businesses across the City of Grand Rapids through coordinated neighborhood cleanup districts citywide.

In 2025, nearly 1,000 volunteers participated and 50+ businesses sponsored, donated, or volunteered.

In 2026, the event expands to two cleanup days — Friday, May 1 and Saturday, May 2 — each followed by a volunteer appreciation event. Volunteers will once again unite across multiple Grand Rapids districts for this city-wide effort focused on strengthening neighborhoods and building community pride. The 2025 cleanup highlights are featured above.

Your sponsorship helps fund:

• Cleanup supplies and safety materials
• District coordination and trash removal
• Volunteer recognition
• Corridor and neighborhood beautification
• Volunteer appreciation events at Celebration Cinema Studio Park and John Ball Zoo

Businesses can partner with the Community Cleanup at multiple sponsorship levels outlined here or support the event by donating raffle items, gift cards, or providing an in-kind service by contacting WSCCInfo@westgrand.org

Volunteer and fundraising teams from businesses are also welcome.
