Purpose

God has given us this magnificent world. You can show your appreciation by doing your part to keep it clean and beautiful.

Goal Description

Make a park or other area more enjoyable by cleaning it up and improving it.

Goal Ideas

  • Organize a service project with your Young Women or Young Men group to clean up litter and other debris at a local park or public area.

  • Look for opportunities in your neighborhood to help improve a home or lawn, like pulling weeds, mowing lawns, planting flowers, painting, or other activities. Make sure to ask first how you can help.

  • Work with your city council or another organization to plan and carry out a citywide clean-up event or to improve a specific area.

  • Commit to leaving a place better than you found it. For example, always remove your own trash and pick up trash that was already there when you arrived.

  • Create your own goal.
