TO Leave the world better than you found it, sometimes you have to pick up other people's trash.

THE EVERY WARRIOR

STREET TEAM

Influence Your Community

THE EVERY WARRIOR STREET TEAM IS DEDICATED TO INFLUENCING THE LOCAL COMMUNITY THROUGH SERVICE, helping contribute to the overall cleanliness of the communities in which our warriors are stationed.

THE STORY BEHIND THE TEAM

Influenced by his fathers' own selfless service, our Vice President, Eric Hoffman, saw a need in the Shreveport/Bossier community and dreamed of a way to help meet it. Like many other cities, littered streets gave off the impression that our cities had given up on themselves. Like his father giving of himself to ensure that every cart in the local supermarket always found its way back to the store, Eric set out to ensure that tires, trash, debris, and other items that litter the streets found their way off the roads and into the dumpster.

Service, together, is something that we believe can revolutionize our lives and our communities. So the idea for the Every Warrior Street Team was born. What if we created a team of Warriors who were intentional about simply and safely picking up trash when they saw it. What would it look like if this team gathered once a month and tackled a certain problem area in our community? What if what started in Shreveport/Bossier could be spread to communities all around the world? Would pride be restored to our cities? Could our Warriors lead the way and learn to love their communities by simply meeting this basic need?

We believe all of this is true, therefore our Street Team is simply a team of individuals who see a need and meet it.   Our soft launch of this program collected 71 tires and over 1500 lbs of trash off the streets of Shreveport/Bossier.
