Community Health & Dental Care (CHDC) is collecting donations to support its Street Medicine Program as part of National Health Center Week, helping provide essential supplies to individuals experiencing homelessness and housing insecurity throughout the community.

Hobart's Run is inviting residents, neighborhood groups, and local businesses to help keep Pottstown clean by participating in its Adopt-a-Trash Can program.

The free initiative allows volunteers to "adopt" a Hobart's Run trash can located on their block. Hobart's Run will deliver and install the trash can, while participating residents help monitor and maintain it. The organization says the program has proven to be an effective way to reduce litter and improve neighborhood cleanliness.

Hobart's Run is also seeking sponsors to help expand the program. Businesses and individuals who contribute financially will help fund additional trash cans throughout the community and will be recognized for supporting efforts to create a cleaner Pottstown.
