The waterways and greenways that define San Antonio need your help. Every year, our community unites for one city-wide mission: The 31st Annual Basura Bash Citywide Waterway Cleanup! But let’s be clear—we aren’t just picking up litter. We are protecting the places we love and restoring the beating heart of our city.

We all have one shared purpose: to remove debris from our beloved rivers and creeks and reclaim our special natural zones from basura.

The impact of just three hours is incredible. Last year, 2,130 volunteers worked side-by-side to recover over 105,000 lbs of trash from the San Antonio River Basin. This year, on March 7th, we are ready to do it again.
