Origins
Standup4Cleanup was born out Joshua D Hewitt's love for the land and his community. During a rather turbulent time in his life he took to the streets and created positive change within himself and his surroundings. This was not small task as he started cleaning the streets of Thunder Bay while he was homeless.
Through partnerships with the First Nations, Eco Superior and many community contributors he has been able forge links within the community to make Thunder Bay a gleaming city of hope. StandUp4CleanUp now comprises many organizers and community groups helping in cleanups and other city activities.
StandUp4CleanUp is focused on cleaning Green Spaces and Waterways through community involvement, donations and volunteer hours.
Respect for the land we share today is of the upmost importance, thanks to our ancestors we are here.
Together we can keep it clean for the next generation.
