UHCL Campus Cleanup

UHCL Campus Cleanup

Saturday, July 27 • 9-11 a.m.

Join us at UHCL for Plastic Free July, take the One Less Plastic pledge to reduce plastic use, and help pick up litter to keep our campus clean and green! We'll bring the tools and water to refill your bottle, you bring the enthusiasm and helping hands! All participants must be at least 8 years old.

This is a volunteer opportunity for community members and university students, staff, and faculty to make a pledge to reduce or eliminate the use of one type of single-use plastic from their lives. We will be picking up trash on and around the UHCL campus, conducting an inventory on the trash collected, and providing information on ways to reduce or eliminate single-use plastics.
