On June 29, 2025, ME & Lau Family Foundation hosted our first ADOPT-A-ROAD Program of York Region to help picking up litter along a regional road section and the school yard of our neighborhood.  This initiative is to help the environment and show community pride. 

Adopt-a-Road is a public service program of York Region to help enhance local litter collection. 

Volunteers adopt Regional road sections and contribute by picking up litter along their adopted section. The program offers a way for environmentally conscious citizens, community groups and businesses to contribute to a cleaner and more beautiful York Region.   

The Regional road network is more than 4,400 lane-kilometres - that’s similar to driving from Toronto to Vancouver. Regional road crews do their best to collect litter while remaining focused on keeping roads running smoothly and safely. Litter looks terrible and impacts the environment. With help from volunteers, we can keep communities clean for everyone to enjoy.
