Monthly Community Clean Up   Saturday,  JUL  25, 2015
9:00 AM

MATT GARCIA FOUNDATION —  Various locations around Fairfield
We meet every last Saturday of each month (weather permitting). We clean up different locations and neighborhoods. Please join us. All are welcome! At the Matt Garcia Foundation we don’t want to complain, we want to create solutions to problems. It is with this spirit that we began our Monthly Community Clean Ups. On the last Saturday of every month, volunteers get together and clean up a neighborhood in Fairfield. We pick up trash, work on landscaping paint windows, fix fences – all in an effort to improve our community. This is another example of community coming together to help make a difference. The Matt Garcia Foundation Dream Team is all about stepping up and stepping out of ourselves to serve others and our communities, to be a part of the solution. As Matt would say ”If you see a piece of garbage on the ground, please just pick it up!” How simple is that? So, that's what we do.
