Haul
2920 lbs. 

United By Blue teamed up with    Riverfront North Partnership, Philadelphia Water Department, Keep Philadelphia Beautiful and The Green Program to host July's Delaware River Cleanup . 116 people gathered at Frankford Boat Launch on Tuesday evening, and spread out for a mile along the waterfront. From hauling heavy tires, to sifting through bits of Styrofoam, our volunteers worked tirelessly to make our river a healthier more beautiful Delaware. In total we picked up 2920 lbs. of trash and recycling from the riverbanks in just 2 hours! 

Special thanks to  Little Baby's Ice Cream for serving up some sweet treats after the cleanup to all of the deserving volunteers! 

United By Blue thanks  Zipcar and GoPhillyGo for its transportation support during the 2018 cleanup season.
