About this app

What is the Clean Neighborhood Project?

The Clean Neighborhood Project is a free app that helps students and volunteers verify community service hours.

How does it work?

Start a cleanup from your phone, pick up litter in your area, and let your phone track your volunteer activity The app uses GPS and photo verification to confirm your cleanup and track your total service hours

Use of Accurate Location Data

The Clean Neighborhood Project app uses precise location information solely to support the accurate tracking and verification of volunteer service activities.
Specifically, accurate location data is collected during active volunteer sessions to:
•Record the start time, duration, and completion of volunteer work.
•Verify that volunteer activity occurred at a real, physical location.
•Document the general areas where litter cleanup took place
•Provide an accurate and auditable record of community service hours for students, volunteers, schools, and partner organizations

This location data functions as a verification measure to ensure that reported volunteer work was actually completed and to maintain the integrity of logged service hours.
Location tracking occurs only while a volunteer session is active and is not used for background surveillance, advertising, or unrelated analytics. Location data is not sold or shared with third parties and is used exclusively for nonprofit operational purposes related to volunteer accountability, recordkeeping, and program reporting.
Users may choose not to grant location access; however, doing so may limit the app’s ability to verify volunteer work and accurately record service hours.
