About the Adopt-A-Spot Program

The City of Savannah and Keep Savannah Beautiful are seeking volunteers to assist with keeping public spaces clean. The goal of the Adopt-A-Spot program is to inspire individuals to take greater responsibility for creating a clean and beautiful city through litter prevention and community beautification. 

What are the benefits to the Community and City?

The obvious benefit is the beautification and enhancement of previously blighted areas. The increased citizen involvement in litter control and beautification will strengthen community and neighborhood pride as well. Volunteers removing the litter and maintaining a site also saves the City of Savannah’s Sanitation and Property Maintenance Department man-hours cleaning and inspecting blighted areas, thus saving public tax dollars.

Who Can Adopt-A-Spot?

Any civic-minded organization, such as the following, can adopt a stretch of street (one mile minimum) leading into their community.

  • Garden Clubs
