You do not need a crowd, a meeting, or a perfect plan to start. You can begin with one safe action where you are.
1
Spot it
Look around you. Notice waste in the places you use every day: your street, shopfront, workplace, school, church, bus stop, market edge, or community space.
2
Pick it up
Pick only what is safe. Use gloves or a bag if you can. Leave anything sharp, medical, chemical, heavy, or unsafe.
3
Drop it right
Dispose of it in a proper bin, public skip, collection point, or approved disposal site. Do not move waste to another unsafe place.
4
Tag it
Take a photo or short video. Post with #CleanGhanaChallenge and #SpotItDropItTagIt. Add your area if you are comfortable.
5
Pass it on
Tag a friend. Share it on your status. Invite your school, church, workplace, family group, or neighbourhood to try it too. Then repeat it when you can.
What to Avoid
Please do not:
Enter gutters or drains
Touch floodwater
Handle medical waste
