Chicago Street Clean Up

I've been on the board a short time and I've been searching to see if anyone in Chicago does some sort of street clean up or something.

A friend of mine have gone out a few times and cleaned up some streets just for ourselves but I was wondering if there is an sort of group that cleans up especially dirty and dangerous streets. If not I'm going to start using my friend's car and a couple industrial brooms to sweep away the broken glass from Saturday nights and car windows.

Call Streets and Sanitation and give them specific addresses. They'll come and clean up.

We're not in Chicago, but my husband and I do this every Sunday in our own neighborhood here in Southern California. We take trash bags along with us on a walk and pick up litter along the way. There's still a lot of litter because we live near a high school, but nowhere near as much as there was when we 1st started. We can now complete the entire 1-1/2-mile walk with only kitchen-sized trash bags.
