Fort Worth is kicking off its environmental initiatives ahead of Earth Month this year, with the 40th Annual Cowtown Great American Cleanup on March 29, announced by Keep Fort Worth Beautiful (KFWB). This large-scale volunteer event aims to address litter in the city, and in 2024, it empowered volunteers to remove over 134,000 pounds of unwanted waste from local areas.
Those looking to contribute to the cause can now register for the cleanup effort. Participants will receive necessary supplies, such as trash bags and gloves, to support their environmental crusade. According to the City of Fort Worth announcement, the first 4,000 registrants are also promised a complimentary event T-shirt, a nod to the spirit of community and collective action that drives the initiative. Individuals and groups are encouraged to sign up, either at one of the designated cleanup hubs or by selecting a public area that is meaningful to them.
Moreover, KFWB is inviting all volunteers to the Earth Party at Rockwood Park after the cleanup activities wrap up. It's a way to celebrate the dedication and impact made by the community with free food and drinks, live performances, entertaining activities, and the opportunity to engage with local environmental initiatives.
