We are the change we want to see in our cities

Adopt-A-Block is the change we want to see in our cities. Our streets are getting dirtier, with more litter and fewer people concerned about keeping things clean. We're losing the pride we used to have in taking care of our shared spaces.

Adopt-A-Block grants funds to local businesses to initiate change and clean up our neighborhoods. Join us in restoring pride to our environment and making our communities cleaner and brighter.

Adopt-A-Block DFW

Launched by the Metroplex Civic & Business Association (MCBA), Adopt-A-Block is a non-profit designed to jumpstart a movement amongst DFW businesses to keep the areas in which we work, live, and play clean

Our program solicits companies to do their part in cleaning up our streets and parks, providing all of the practical and other guidance they need to get started, and – thanks to the generosity of donors – is in a position to cover some or all of the small costs of a company’s Adopt-A-Block program.
