Event Details

Lower Nob Hill is a vibrant community, with diverse small businesses and a lively urban spirit. We take pride in our neighborhood and want it to shine! Since July 2021, dedicated volunteers have come together each Sunday morning to clean our sidewalks, build connections, and take pride in improving our shared space.

Join us and be part of the difference! Volunteers meet at Another Cafe (1191 Pine St at Leavenworth St, meet on the Leavenworth side) at 9:45am to receive supplies, a cleanup route, a partner, and instructions. Teams head out promptly at 10:00am to pick up trash, returning by 11:00am. Afterwards, stick around for free food and a chance to connect with fellow volunteers.

Lower Nob Hill Weekly Cleanup is made possible by our incredible volunteers, with funding from the Civic Joy Fund, support from Refuse Refuse, Another Cafe, and Cheaper Than Therapy Comedy Club. Supplies are provided by SF Public Works.

Your help makes all the difference—come join us in keeping Lower Nob Hill beautiful!

We have limited FREE tickets for Cheaper Than Therapy Comedy Club,  Sunday @ 7:45 PM show, https://cttcomedy.com
