Clean Up - Give Back's Earth Month Initiatives: 2025!
The Plastic Bag Drive!
Every year during Earth Month (April), Clean Up - Give Back facilitates the upcycling pliable plastic bags and film! In 2024, we partnered with over 200 locations to collect over 21,000 POUNDS of plastic film! The bags collected are delivered to NexTrex, who up-cycles the bags into usable composite decking and furniture. Join and help the cause!
The Reusable Tote Initiative! ($3)
To complement the Plastic Bag Drive, we're deploying 20,000 Reusable Tote Bags made from recycled plastic! Embrace style and sustainability with our Reusable Earth and Ocean Tote Bags! Made from recycled materials, these cute, fashionable tokens of environmental stewardship are perfect for your shopping needs! Carry your essentials while making a statement for a cleaner planet! Embrace eco-friendly living with our Reusable Tote Initiative.
The Big 5 Cleanups!
Transform communities across Chicagoland! Participate in The Big 5 Earth Month Cleanups. Schiller Woods, Busse Woods, Axehead Lake, Garfield Park, and Lake Michigan will all have a dedicated cleanup in Earth Month. Join us to unearth the natural beauty of these communities!
