A little about KHB
Kiss Hershey Back! is a township-wide cleanup effort led by College of Medicine students to try and make the Sweetest Place on Earth also the Cleanest Place on Earth. This project was started three years ago by five first year medical students who wanted to give back to the community. This community-driven event was supported by the Derry Township Board and Department of Public Works along with local community organizations and businesses. In its first year, more than 800 community members turned out on the date to pick up litter in Derry Township’s parks, near its greenways, and along its rural roads.
Kiss Hershey Back 2012 will be held on April 28, 2012. We will update this website as well as the Facebook page so check back for more details as we get closer! If you have any questions, please e-mail us at kisshersheyback@gmail.com
