It’s easy to take part in the Clean Up Challenge. Here’s how.
1. No matter how big or small, take a picture of litter (your Before shot) that you intend to pick up.
2. Bag up the litter, or throw it in the trash, and take another photo of the cleaned up area. (Your After shot.)
3. Post your accomplishment here on ThatHelps by clicking ‘Post a Help’.
4. You can also post your accomplishment on Twitter using hashtag #CleanUpChallenge....and get inspired by what everyone else is doing too!
Thanks!
