WHNA Alley Clean-up

SPRING into Action! WHNA Neighborhood Clean-up Returns May 12

It’s here again! Our annual neighborhood-wide Spring Clean-Up on Saturday, May 12th starting at 8:00 am. The City of Richmond provides the trucks and drivers, so that WHNA volunteers can follow behind and “hoist in” discarded household furnishings, yard debris, and other items from either in the alley or in the street in front of homes without alleys.

Please email Robert Kelly at robmkelly1@gmail.com or call him at 231-0629 to volunteer for the WHNA general clean-up project.
