The City of Richmond actively supports park, trail, street, and natural area clean-ups by local businesses and community organizations year-round through the Partners for Beautification program. This program provides an opportunity for residents to become actively involved in the beautification and stewardship of their community by adopting public spaces and keeping them clean and green.

Partners for Beautification volunteers demonstrate the power of working together to make a difference in our shared environment. For more information, visit Partners for Beautification.
