UnLitter Red Dot was launched by Habitat for Humanity Singapore to bring clean and safe living environments to the home and beyond.

The clean-up programme focuses efforts on residential estates that require more help like rental flat neighbourhoods. This volunteer activity is suitable for families and children – children as young as kindergarteners accompanied by an adult are welcomed. 

UnLitter Red Dot seeks to spark conversations among volunteers about what it means to care for one’s living space beyond the home. It is their hope that a generation of compassionate citizens will pave the way for sustainable change in how we care for our living environments.
