KIDS CARE is ALWAYS up to cleaning up the local parks, waterways and anywhere we see litter!  Come join us at our next park clean up and take time to care!  If you can't join us then you can pick up litter on your own time and still participate with us by joining us on the Litterati App.  This app is a global litter tracking app and will keep track of what litter is found where, and how much litter you pick up.  Join our Litterati Club Team "Kids-care2018" and help us clean up our world.  Be the change.    HELPING ONGOING

Project "Straw-Over":  On March 17, 2019 we met at Marietta Square (Marietta, GA)  to hand out alternative straws & plastic straw pollution facts.  The purpose of the mission was to raise awareness about the damaging effects of plastic straws on our environment - in particular the ocean and all marine life.  We had 12 businesses who accepted our Eco-friendly straw donations (paper & hay) and countless citizens who received some of thousands of Eco-friendly straws we distributed.  We also gave away free coloring pages with the logo that was designed by Mrs. Martha Frew of Jackson Michigan.  Thank You Mrs. Frew. Thank you HAY! Straws, Eco-pliant & Sea Straw Co for your generous donation of straws.   HELPING ONGOING
