Sweep 2021

Dear Richard,

Next Saturday, thousands of volunteers across New York City and the Hudson Valley will gather along shorelines and in parks to clean up trash, plant native plants, and remove invasive species as part of the 10th Annual Riverkeeper Sweep. To date, our volunteers have cleaned up a grand total of 275 tons of trash, and planted 2,800 native plants.

Will you help make our 10th Riverkeeper Sweep the biggest one yet? If you’ve already signed up to volunteer, thank you!! Please forward this email and invite your friends, family, and colleagues to join you! Note: Sweep is a rain or shine event.
