\"\"<\/a>In observance of #EarthDay365<\/a> and Global Days of Service<\/a>, join us for the 27th Annual Charles River Cleanup on Saturday, April 25, from 10 am to 12 pm!<\/p>\n

Boston University students, faculty, staff and alumni will gather along the Charles River Esplanade near Warren Towers and the Questrom School of Business to remove trash and debris, preserving this iconic historical landmark. This event isn’t just about making a positive impact on our local community; it’s also an opportunity to connect with fellow Terriers who share a passion for volunteerism, sustainability, and service. It sounds simple, but you\u2019ll have a great time chatting with others, enjoying nature and taking in some amazing views.<\/p>\n

The Esplanade Association will provide gloves and all the tools we need to remove trash and debris from the section of the Esplanade adjacent to our campus. So bring yourself, a water bottle and all the Earth Day vibes!<\/p>\n

Register here!<\/a><\/p>\n

You will be notified via email of the 10 am meeting spot!<\/p>\n
