The January 2023 Challenge
First Lady Susan McKee has a challenge for all Rhode Islanders:
Pick up one piece of litter!
One million RI residents could easily remove one million pieces of litter from our state. With no snow on the ground, we’re now seeing litter everywhere, often right on residential property, down neighborhood streets, or at our office parking areas.
_______________________________
Litter doesn’t have to stay in RI.
If we all just pick up one piece, RI will be one million pieces cleaner!
Join our challenge in January — here is all you do:
_____________________________
#1 Pick Up A Piece of Litter — We are asking every RI resident to go out somewhere in Rhode Island by January 31st, and pick up one piece of litter. Pretty easy huh? If you get in the groove, keep going. More pieces are even better.
#2 Share on Social Media — Go to the KBVB’s facebook or Instagram page and post your photo with at least one piece of litter and the location with the hashtag #RIMillionPieces.
#3 See Your Efforts & Results — In February, we will track all the posts and tabulate the items you all collect. It will be interesting to see all your efforts. And another even better result will be removing all that litter from our streets.
Will we make the One Million Piece Goal? It will be up to you, but we are feeling really positive. We know our Rhode Islanders are a force that steps up
to better our communities.
