The Blue Bucket Project
What began with one bucket, a trash grabber and a friend quickly turned into a mission to provide tools for others to help. The Blue Bucket Project has given out over 500 litter pick up starter kits. You can help make our communities better places. Start by contacting us!
What We Do
Not only do we give out kits, we help pick up litter! We each have our own neighborhoods plus we organize Flash Trash Mobs for a quick intensive 60 min pick up in areas that need extra help!
The voting is over. We have the deepest of gratitude for you and Veridian Credit Union.

Flash Trash Mobs
A Flash Trash Mob (FTM) is a group of people who gather at a specific time & place to do 60 minutes of intense yet fun litter gathering. Anyone can attend. Supplies are provided or you can bring your own. FTMs are often at highly used intersections or areas of need. We schedule mini-mobs mid week for mobsters.

"This is a GREAT organization that wants to help keep Omaha clean and nice looking. It's all free, and you can do your part with just a little bit of your time. You can get out walk, meet your neighbors, and do something nice (and cheap) to help keep Omaha clean!" CM (one of the BBP participants.)
