Environment October 3, 2019 Clean Parks for National Clean Up Day When the bell rings for environmental cleanup, Planned Companies answers the call. This year, our campaign centered around National Clean Up Day, September 21st 2019. With that day being a Saturday, the team decided to divide and conquer during the week, with clean up dates at local parks and beaches announced for September 26th and September 27th, respectively. Planned team members from our New Jersey, New York, Mid-Atlantic, and South offices participated. Below you will find the recaps region by region: New York: Miller Park, Staten Island, NY Leading off our two-day clean up, was our NY office. Beautiful weather broke through the morning and our team went to work cleaning Millar Park in Staten Island. Between the local beach and park, many items such as tissues, paper/plastic products, glass and more were collected and put in trash bags. In total, 30 bags are garbage were collected from the site. We thank all the associates from our Brooklyn office that came out to participate and lead off our Clean Up week!
