Next project
The final scan for our Cigarette Litter Prevention Program has been completed. Watch for results at the end of September! We will be at the Alachua County Fairgrounds on Labor Day Weekend to promote recycling at The Big and Hearty Music and Arts Festival. Thanks to WASTE PRO for helping us in this effort! A portion of Big and Hearty's proceeds will be donated to Gulf Specimen Laboratories' NOAH'S ARC Project to assist in rehabilitating wildlife in the Gulf of Mexico. |
Four years ago, we began a project to decrease neighborhood dependence on government resources. Our neighborhood committee, under the leadership of Gainesville Police Department's CPL. Audrey Mazzucca, enjoys the participation of Gainesville and Alachua County neighborhood leaders as well as representatives of the Gainesville Police Department and the Alachua County Sheriff's Office. We have successfully eliminated Level One cleanups and have reduced the number of Level Two cleanups. Through KACB's assistance, residents assume a significant role in arranging and coordinating these cleanups. KACB continues to provide volunteers and the numbers of resident volunteers continues to climb!
