Daisy Martinez founded Trash Free Earth\\xa0so her neighborhood park would look better. The idea spread and Trash Free Earth now hosts regular cleanups where a diverse collection of volunteers come together to make \\xa0a\\xa0park look beautiful.\\xa0

Trash Free Earth has created a patch challenge. People who accomplish all five elements of the challenge receive an exclusive patch.\\xa0

If a park hosts a cleanup, it will reinforce the idea that the park is responsible for cleaning up. If a community organization organizes and hosts a cleanup, it will spread the idea that the community is responsible for keeping their parks clean.\\xa0

You can Follow Trash Free Earth on Twitter\\xa0and Facebook.
