BFF Omaha’s Green Team will host their neighborhood cleanup on Sunday September 20th in Benson as part of Good Neighbor Week, Omaha's first citywide celebration of neighbors and the people who bring them together. Led by One Omaha, Good Neighbor Week runs September 20th through 26th and invites residents, schools, businesses, faith communities, nonprofits and neighborhood organizations to strengthen the city one block at a time.
What: Neighborhood Cleanup
When: Sunday September 20th, 10am-12pm
Where: Behind Petshop Gallery, 2729 N 62nd Street

At the event, neighbors can clean the neighborhood, get to know their neighbors, and learn more about recycling and waste systems. The gathering is also an official stamp stop on the Good Neighbor Passport. Attendees can scan the host QR code to collect a stamp, and anyone who collects five stamps during the week becomes a Certified Good Neighbor.
Good Neighbor Week 2026 marks the Year of the Neighbor with a full week of neighbor-led gatherings across Omaha.
