About UnLitter Red Dot: Clean and healthy living environments beyond the home
Launched in 2016, UnLitter Red Dot is an extension of Habitat's mission to bring clean and safe living environments in the home and beyond. Our community clean-up programme was created to nurture a culture and society that is more civic-minded and considerate.
Littering continues to be a perennial issue year after year. Singapore's dream is to be a clean garden city but we have earned a reputation of being a "cleaned" city, relying on an army of cleaners.
Despite having fines in place, our community spaces like void decks, playgrounds and car parks are constantly littered with tissue paper, cigarette stubs, food packaging, plastic bottle and more. We believe it is possible to plant the seed of change and society that takes ownership of its surroundings beyond the immediate home.
By volunteering in UnLitter, we seek to start new conversations with volunteers about what it means to care for one’s living space beyond the four corners of our homes. We want to groom a generation of compassionate citizens to step out and be the champions for change.

“Tolerate litter and you'll tolerate anything.”
— Millard Fuller, late Founder of Habitat for Humanity
UnLitter Red Dot was partly inspired by Millard Fuller, our late founder, who believed that litter represented the worst of the community. The enigmatic leader was known to take ages to get from one place to another as he would stoop to pick up litter while he was walking.

Introducing BlockWalk: Virtual UnLitter Red Dot
We may not be able to volunteer together as a group for UnLitter Red Dot, but there is still a way for us to take action and be the solution.
Introducing BlockWalk: our new monthly virtual volunteering opportunity to clean up your neighbourhood or favourite green space.
Imagine if all 5 million of us living in Singapore picked up one piece of trash we see every day. The solution to having a home that is litter-free beyond your own house is really as simple as that.
Join us virtually over Zoom every last Saturday in our mission to clear trash islandwide. Do it alone or with your kids, family and friends in groups of 8. All you will need is your mask, phone, plastic or garbage bags, a BBQ tong or gloves - and the courage to step forward.
Unsure about how this works? Please refer to the FAQ section here.
