St. Anne's Hospital sponsors a Mission Day project every year. This year, on September 5, 2007, staff engaged in a Neighborhood Clean-up Project in the area around the Hospital and on the sidewalk along the fence of St. Anne's Shrine on Middle Street. This event addresses one of the Healthy City priority areas of Cleaner Streets and Parks throughout the city. The Department of Public Works will assist any group that wants to organize a similar neighborhood clean-up by supplying tools and picking up trash. City-sponsored clean-ups this summer included the Bank Street Clean-up, the clean-up at Father Diaferio's Development, the Maplewood Park clean-up, the Peaceful Coalition Clean-up, the Sandy Beach clean-up, the Taunton River clean-up, and the Smudge the Grudge graffiti removal. Click here for photos of the 2005 Mission Day clean-up. For more information about Mission Day, contact Sister Carol at 508-674-5600.
