Supporting the Movement That Started It All
World Cleanup Day didn't just happen – it was invented, built, and nurtured into existence by Let's Do It movement and a global network of dedicated volunteers who believed that collective action could change the world. What began as an audacious idea has grown into the world's largest civic action on environmental issues, now recognized on the UN Calendar of International Days.
But this isn't a story about a well-funded organization with vast resources. This is a story about let's-doers – people who use their own time, energy, and often their own resources to organise millions of participants across more than 190 countries. Behind every cleanup event, every country leader coordinating thousands of volunteers, every piece of data collected about waste in our environment, there are real people working without pay because they believe in what we're building together.
Let's Do It World exists to guide and support this extraordinary network.
We provide the coordination, the tools, the guidance, and the infrastructure that allows local organizers to transform their passion into action. We connect country leaders, share best practices, develop resources, and maintain the global framework that makes World Cleanup Day possible. We created the governance structures through our General Assemblies that give this movement democratic legitimacy. We fought for and won recognition from the United Nations.
But we can only do this work with your support.
Every donation directly strengthens the network that makes World Cleanup Day happen. Your contribution helps us:
- Develop and share resources that make organizing easier and more effective
- Maintain the coordination infrastructure that connects let's-doers around the world
- Strengthen our governance and organizational sustainability for the long term
- Continue advocating for recognition and support at international level.
This movement runs on dedication and donations.
Many of our organisers dip into their personal savings to cover costs. They work evenings and weekends alongside their regular jobs. They do this because they've experienced firsthand how participation in World Cleanup Day creates consciousness shifts – how collective action changes not just landscapes, but mindsets and behaviors.
We're working toward our "Strive for Five" goal – engaging 5% of the global population in environmental action. That's not just an ambitious target; it's a threshold where movements create lasting systemic change. But reaching it requires sustained support for the network of volunteers who make it possible.
