Information for Volunteers

You can also download and read our Annual GAC Newsletter (available March) to find out about park cleanups, river cleanups, and community cleanup days in Milwaukee , Ozaukee , Washington and Waukesha counties.

As a volunteer, you will receive a THANK YOU COUPON sheet for your participation in the Great American Cleanup.
