Welcome and thank you for visiting the Prince William Clean Community Council website.  The purpose of our website is to provide useful information and ideas on how to keep Prince William County clean, safe and beautiful.  We hope you will find helpful tips and suggestions on how you can do you part in maintaining the local environment.

It is our belief that residents, business owners, parents, teachers and clergy must take proactive steps to keep our neighborhoods, shopping centers, schools and places of business clean and litter free.  

Please join me and other PWCCC partners by participating in one or more of our volunteer programs.  Our programs are designed to provide volunteer opportunities for individuals, groups, youth, families and communities.  Most of our programs require minimum time requirements and can be done at the convenience of the individual or group.  

Graffiti is becoming a growing problem in the county.  Our “Graffiti Spotters” program was established to keep our communities free of graffiti.  Participants simply call the Prince William County police when graffiti is sighted and afterwards contact this office.  Our office will contact the property owner about removal and provide free graffiti remover to residents.  As a graffiti spotter you would follow up by letting us know if and when the graffiti was removed.  Now that’s an easy one, right?  If you want to actively participate in our new Graffiti Removers Program click on the Volunteer Programs menu and select Graffiti Spotters to find out how.

Please be sure to look at the different programs describe on the website and decide which appeals to you and will fit into your schedule.  Think about how you can involve your family members, friends and neighbors too.

Please feel free to give us a call at 703-792-6272 or email me directly at [ email ] if you have any questions or ideas that you wish to share with us.  Let me know what you think about the website and if you have suggestions by all means share them with me.

Thank you again for visiting our website, we hope the information is helpful to you.  I sincerely hope that we will become partners in this effort to keep Prince William County clean, safe and beautiful.

Sincerely,

Brenda Evans
Executive Director

Prince William County, Virginia – March 7 & 8, 2009 – Timberland clothing store employees will team up with Prince William Clean Community Council, (the Council) as volunteer graffiti removers in Prince William County, Virginia.  Timberland has a community service program “Path of Service™” whereby employees are allotted 20 to 40 hours of annual paid time off to work on service projects in their communities. Through Timberland’s vision and hard work, real change is taking root.  By teaming up with local residents and stakeholders, Timberland helps to solve critical problems and enhance the environment and community in which they live and work.
