Don’t be Trashy Drive

Don’t Be Trashy! Join the Coolest Clean-Up Crew in Town! 🧤🌍

Hey, you — yes, YOU with the snack wrapper in your pocket! Are you ready to become a planet-saving, litter-busting superhero? Then it’s time to join the Don’t Be Trashy Drive — the most fun you’ll ever have while picking up other people’s mess!

We’re calling all awesome kids (that means you!) to grab some gloves, a bag, and your biggest smile because this clean-up mission is about to begin!

What’s the “Don’t Be Trashy” Drive?

It’s a wild, wacky, wonderful day when we team up to make our parks, beaches, schools, and streets squeaky clean. We pick up bottles, chip packets, rogue socks (ew!), and anything else that doesn’t belong in nature. 🗑️

And guess what? You don’t need superpowers — just a little care for your planet, and maybe a pair of cool sunglasses to look extra heroic while you do it.

Why Should You Join?

Because trash is trouble. It hurts animals, pollutes the earth, and just looks yucky. Imagine a penguin tripping over a plastic bag — not cool! By joining the clean-up, you’re helping protect animals, plants, and even your own playground.

So Don’t Be Trashy... Be classy! Be sassy! Be a trash-busting legend! Get your friends, your cousins, even your granny, and join the “Don’t Be Trashy” Drive between 1 – 30 September.

🌟Are you in? Let’s clean-up, power up, and show the world how awesome kids can be! To join or arrange a clean-up email cwindvogel@capenature.co.za.
