Thank You, Alger Heights!

Thank you to everyone who made Alger Heights Dumpster Day a success. Neighbors showed up early and kept coming, and at the peak the line stretched nearly halfway around the park.

By the numbers

• 163 neighbors participated
• 8 dumpsters filled
• 100 neighbors served by 9 AM
• 12 volunteers
• $90.60 donated to neighborhood outreach, printing, and newsletters

Thank you, volunteers

To our 12 volunteers: you checked in residents, kept traffic moving, and helped neighbors all morning. Dumpster Day does not happen without you, and we are grateful you gave your Saturday to the neighborhood.

Thank you, neighbors and partners

Thank you to every neighbor who came out, waited patiently, and helped keep Alger Heights clean, and to everyone who donated. We are also grateful to Grand Rapids Public Works and Parks and Recreation for helping make the event possible.

Look here for 2027
