Hello Harlem. I am Mia, and I joined the Harlem Neat Streets Challenge to help keep our neighborhood beautiful.
A cleaner Harlem means a safer and stronger community for all residents & visitors.
I took the Neat Streets Pledge, shared why it matters to me and committed to doing my part to help create a cleaner Harlem. I post photos and videos of my clean-up efforts on social media, tag @125thstreetbid, and use #HarlemNeatStreets to inspire friends and family to join.
We can all make Harlem shine and earn prizes while doing it! Click below, take the pledge, and join us today!
