Seven months in the making, We Love Clean Rivers, the Portland, Oregon-based river cleanup non-profit, launched its new website Thursday! I’m on the board of directors. I led the re-branding effort. After countless meetings on company identity, phraseology, logos, colors, business cards, stationery and more, we are done and it’s launched!
I also spearheaded the voluntourism weekends project for the Clackamas County Tourism and Cultural Affairs Department. We Love Clean Rivers got a grant from the department, part of which was to put together tourist weekends surrounding our cleanups! You can work a cleanup one day – and putting on FUN cleanups is what we’re all about…stay in a hotel in Clackamas County, and the other weekend day treat yourself to rafting, kayaking, stand up paddleboarding, or fly fishing! Check out the opportunities on the voluntourism page of the We Love Clean Rivers website…
When are these weekends? The Clackamas River Cleanup, September 10-11, and the Great Willamette Cleanup, October 8-9! See you there!
