Sonja Martin of Christiansburg shares this photo and writes:

My son Matthew Martin decided to be a good neighbor by picking up the trash on the road in his neighborhood, He said mom there sure are some litter bugs in our neighborhood, Don’t anyone care about the earth anymore? I said some people do, It just takes 1 person to make a difference and I am proud of you.

Thanks, Sonja!

  2. its nice to see a young person doing something like this, but he really should be wearing something bright to help drivers see him.
