Conservative Activist, 200 Volunteers Clean 12 Tons of Trash From Baltimore Streets
by Petr Svab

Some 200 volunteers combed through the streets of northwest Baltimore on Aug. 5, cleaning up trash and weeds in an “Americans Helping Americans” event organized by conservative activist Scott Presler.

Starting at 7 a.m. at the corner of North Fulton Avenue and Westwood Avenue, the volunteers spread through the surrounding blocks. By 8 p.m., they had collected more than 12 tons of trash—destination junkyard.

Many locals expressed gratitude to the participants, and some joined in, Presler said in a phone call to The Epoch Times.

He learned from talking to local residents that “the people of Baltimore love their country and love their city and they’re proud to live there,” but the government isn’t doing enough to solve the trash problem—specifically illegal dumping at abandoned buildings.
