Free Earth Day Clean Up Supplies Available!
Spring has sprung and thanks to Gov. Dan McKee’s Litter-Free RI campaign, the City of Newport's Clean City Program has been awarded a microgrant to provide supplies to support Earth Day cleanups around town!
The Clean City Program has a limited supply of cleanup materials (trash bags, gloves, trash pickers & buckets) for use by volunteer groups and will provide assistance with trash pickup for anyone who registers their cleanup efforts with us. To sign up, contact the Clean City program at CleanCity@CityofNewport.com or 845-5617 ASAP.

• DATE/TIME of the cleanup (and rain date if applicable)
•LOCATION – let us know your area of interest or we can provide you with a suggestion.
• CONTACT PERSON for your group and how they may be reached via cell phone on the day of the scheduled event.
