Mission Adopt-A-Block
Youth Volunteer
Opportunities
Mission Adopt-A-Block
invites the Mission's
secondary students to
consider volunteering in
litter clean-up activity to
fill volunteer hours. Help keep
Mission clean by committing to a litter
clean-up in some of Mission's most
littered neighborhoods.
Group or
individual clean-up
events can be organized.
Individuals
can 'adopt' an area in
their neighborhood and
maintain the litter on a
monthly basis during the school year and
Mission Adopt-A-Block
will provide the
equipment needed to
collect the litter. Or a
group clean-up can be
arranged through the
Mission Adopt-A-Block
Society, and we will
provide staff to oversee
the clean-up event, work
with your group to pick
routes and clean-up
dates, provide equipment
and direct students in
proper and safe clean-up
procedures before
commencing on the
clean-up project.
Mission Adopt-A-Block
will be happy to provide youth
volunteers with
recognition of their
litter control participation
(reference letters, etc.).
Mission Adopt-a-Block
believes that those
students involved in
litter clean-up efforts
will gain a sense of
ownership in the
community of Mission and
gain a valuable lesson of
social responsibility
and environment
awareness.
It is our objective
to encourage our youth to
become caring stewards
of the environment and
enthusiastic and
thoughtful members of
Mission’s community!
