What did you do?• We traveled to various neighborhoods
throughout the city of Baton Rouge and picked up litter.
• These communities needed much attention due to the substantial amount of waste and pollution (trash).
• We used flyers and posters to advertise to the community about the importance of keeping the community beautiful.

Who did the project impact (define the community)?
The different locations we visited allowed Project Litterbug to expand to various communities such as: • Sherwood Forest• Monticello• Mid-City• Park Forest• Zion City• Garden District• BREC Park
It impacted the people living in these neighborhoods by:• It’s animal friendly because
there is no trash for them to choke on
• Tidy front lawns• Kids are not exposed to
indecent items (cigarettes, beer bottles, contraception, narcotics, etc.)

How did you measure the success of the project?• We measured our success by the number of bags we collected.
• The overall cleanliness of each neighborhood after we finished.
Let’s do the MATH…• The average garbage collector makes about $16.55 per hour for 40 hours per week.
• That accumulates to $34,424 per year.
We did a total of 8 services hours .
$16.55 x 8 = $132.40
We saved the city approximately $132.40 by implementing Project Litterbug!!!!
