Volunteer

Volunteering with Block by Block Philly is the heart of what we do. Each cleanup brings neighbors, families, students, and friends together to roll up their sleeves and take action. We provide everything you need, safety vests, gloves, tools, water, and guidance, so all you need to bring is your energy and commitment. Your presence makes a lasting impact on our city.

Workshops

Sign up to be notified about the next Know What to Throw Workshop and learn more about proper trash disposal, recycling, and ways we can work together to keep our neighborhoods cleaner. In person or virtual option available. 

Donate

Every bag we fill, every block we restore, and every child who learns the value of caring for their city is made possible through donations. Contributions allow us to buy supplies like gloves, vests, trash grabbers, and water, as well as cover costs for storage, transportation, and community outreach. Donating also helps us create events that are safe, family-friendly, and welcoming to all. No donation is too small, and every dollar helps us make today better than yesterday.

Become A Sponsor

Sponsorship is more than financial support, it’s a partnership that shows your organization or business cares about the community. Sponsors help us provide vital resources like tools, refreshments, and safety gear, and they gain visibility by being featured on our flyers, social media, and event signage. Whether through financial contributions, in-kind donations, or employee volunteer groups, your support makes it possible for Block by Block Philly to expand our reach and deepen our impact across Philadelphia.

Spread The Word

Not everyone can make it to a cleanup, but everyone can help grow the movement. By spreading the word, you amplify our message and inspire more people to get involved. Share our posts on Instagram and Facebook, forward our newsletters, or talk to your neighbors about joining the next event. Raising awareness helps us change the culture around littering and dumping in Philadelphia. Every share, tag, or conversation is a ripple effect that brings more hands, more energy, and more solutions to the fight for a cleaner, safer city.
