#Impactday Dates + Themes

#1: October 25th: Leaf it Better!

The leaves are turning, and nature is showing off. This month, get outside for your favorite fall nature activities and soak up the autumn vibes.

 

After that, take some time for a nature cleanup and leaf it better than you found it!

 

Bonus points for before and after photos!

#2: November 22nd: Gobble Up Garbage!

November is the season of the turkey! As we take time all across the US to reflect on what we are thankful for, turn your gratitude into action and get out there and gobble up garbage in your community!

 

If it's too cold to get out for a litter cleanup in your area, try and think of one sustainable swap you can make at an upcoming holiday gathering.

#3: December 13th: Sleigh the Trash!

  1. Santa needs his little helpers, and so does nature! Let’s get out there and sleigh the trash together! Here are some ideas for how you can leave an impact this month:

1. Get outside and pick up trash if weather permits.

2. Opt for sustainable gift wrapping.

3. Make one sustainable swap this month.

#4: January 31st: Greenuary

It’s a new year. Let’s make it a green one! We’re kicking it off by making a commitment to get outside more, take care of the planet, and do our part to keep nature wild. Here’s how you can start Greenuary off with a bang!

 

  1. 1. Re-commit to cleaning up nature once a month.

Our Mission as Wild Keepers

Wild Keepers are on a mission to pick up trash outside, make a positive impact on the outdoor spaces that we enjoy, have fun doing it as a part of a larger community of Wild Keepers, and inspire others to do the same.

Impact Days

Impact Days are once a month.

 

On these days, Wild Keeper Ambassadors flood Instagram with the positive impact you’ve been making throughout the past month.

 

Each Impact Day, there are (optional) Impact Day Themes to get your creative juices flowing and Monthly challenges + giveaways as a special thank you for all the hard work you put in to help keep nature wild.

You don't have to pickup trash on Impact Day

you just need to post your impact photo on Impact Day!

Before Impact Day

Step 1: Pick Up Trash

Pick up trash at any point before or on Impact Day (at a park, neighborhood, trail, urban area, anywhere!)

Step 2: Snap a Photo

Snap a fun photo of you and your trash haul to save and post on Impact Day!

Step 3: Weigh Your Trash

You can do this precisely with an scale or guesstimate your weight. A KNW trash bag weighs between 5-15 lbs depending on micro trash or regular, bulky trash!

On Impact Day

1. Grab Photo + Hashtags

Grab your super-cute Impact Day photo from your cleanup! Always include these hashtags in your post: #impactday + #keepnaturewild + #wildkeepers so we can help celebrate your impact!

2. Caption and Post

Use the caption to talk about why it's important to Keep Nature Wild! For inspo, check out the Wild Keeper Social Media Kit or use the monthly Impact Day theme below!
