Love Our Waterways Louisiana Cleanup | New Orleans News

Louisiana’s launching “Love Our Waterways” this September — a massive cleanup push across rivers, lakes, and shorelines, powered by volunteers, businesses, and communities. Inspired by the wildly successful “Love The Boot Week,” this initiative aims to tackle litter before it floods our waterways — with a twist: every dollar saved on cleanup could fund schools or roads instead. With 80% of land litter ending up in water systems, cleaning locally has national ripple effects. As Louisiana sits at the Mississippi’s mouth, we’re literally catching what other states dump downstream. Join the effort — register to clean 14,000+ miles of waterways or donate to beautification projects. The Lieutenant Governor kicks it off with a press conference at Nicholls State Wednesday morning.
