It’s time to gear up for Love the Boot Week–April 5-13, 2025.

This is your chance to join thousands of volunteers in cleaning up our communities and beautifying our landscapes.

Be a part of Louisiana’s largest litter removal and beautification effort taking place in all 64 parishes. It is 
organized by Keep Louisiana Beautiful and supported by the Office of the Lieutenant Governor. 

Litter is not a new problem for Louisiana. For decades, litter has become increasingly detrimental to our communities, leading to a multitude of repercussions such as:

• Blight on natural areas, cities, towns, roadways, and waterways
• Death of wildlife due to polluted habitats
• Decline in quality of life in neighborhoods
• A negative impact on economic development, infrastructure, and tourism
• Flooding caused by storm drains clogged with litter and debris

Despite spending over $91.4 million in litter abatement each year, Louisiana is still experiencing shocking levels of litter statewide.

“Picking up litter is important, but litter education is the primary goal of Love the Boot Week,” says Susan Russell, Executive Director of Keep Louisiana Beautiful. “If we can all learn the repercussions of litter and adopt behaviors to prevent it from happening in the first place, we will see a cleaner, greener Louisiana.”
