2024-2025 Environmental Impact
Keep Tampa Bay Beautiful works year-round to engage volunteers in projects that protect and enhance communities across Hillsborough County. Volunteers help remove litter from
roadways, parks, neighborhoods, shorelines, and waterways, including the Hillsborough River and Tampa Bay. Cleanup efforts focus on key areas such as downtown Tampa, Ybor City, Plant City, Brandon, Riverview, and surrounding neighborhoods. In addition to collecting litter and debris, volunteers support tree plantings, beautification projects, invasive species removal, storm drain awareness efforts, and Adopt-A-Road/Park cleanups, helping reduce pollution and improve public spaces. Keep Tampa Bay Beautiful staff coordinate logistics, recruit volunteers, and provide all necessary supplies. Cleanup tools and materials are also available for loan thanks to generous grant funding, sponsors, and in-kind donations. All collected debris is properly documented and disposed of at each event.

Why Litter Reduction Matters Litter reduction and cleanup efforts are essential to maintaining a healthy, safe, and beautiful community. By removing trash from streets, parks, and waterways, we help protect local wildlife, improve water quality, and preserve the natural beauty of our neighborhoods. These efforts also build community pride and encourage residents to take responsibility for the places they live, creating long-lasting environmental benefits for all.
