Join us for the 27th year of the Earth Day Charles River Cleanup and give back to the river and parks that are a centerpiece of the community!
Every year the Charles River Cleanup recruits over 3,000 volunteers who come together to remove trash from the Charles River and the Muddy River. Thanks to our local partners who work in different areas of the river, the cleanup helps to maintain all 80 miles of the Charles River and the 1,100 acres of the Emerald Necklace Park surrounding the Muddy River. Volunteers report a sense of pride knowing that their efforts will have an impact on the entire river ecosystem.
The cleanup builds on a national effort as part of the American Rivers’ National River Cleanup, which to date has removed over 25 million pounds of trash from American waterways.
