Alabama Coastal Cleanup 2024
September 21, 8:00 am—12:00 pm
Every year on the third Saturday in September, lower Alabamians take to the streets and the beaches to pick up tons of litter.
Whether you find a local group to join or just pick up litter in your own neighborhood (which will eventually be carried by stormwater into a creek, river, or the bay), you can participate in this annual event! There is also a cleanup group in Africatown if you are interested in helping there.
You or your organization can volunteer to clean Alabama’s coastal waterways and beaches on Saturday, September 21, 2024 from 8am – 12pm. Take part in the state’s largest annual volunteer event as you clean your neighborhoods, local parks, streets, and storm drains too. Trash travels through storm drains, streams, and rivers to become bay and Gulf pollution. Picking up litter benefits you, your community and the Gulf.
Over 110,000 volunteers have assisted in this event since Alabama joined the International Coastal Cleanup in 1987. We are grateful to the many helping hands and hearts who have pitched in to benefit our priceless natural resources.
