Josh & Mik

Hi there! Our names our Josh and Mik, and we are the founders of Clean Planet Project Co. (CPP) - a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to a cleaner future for our planet.

We started CPP in the summer of 2020. At the time, we both started to work from home and began going on a lot of walks around the pond by our apartment. With the pandemic, social unrest, and all of the other negative things about the environment constantly on the news and social media - we started to brainstorm ways that we could help people and the planet. So we decided to start small and pick up some litter on our walks… then we thought, “It would help if there was a fun app to track our progress and share cleanups with other people…” And so began the early stages of developing the Litter CleanUp app!

Little did we know that this would grow into a volunteer network of awesome litter-picker-uppers! 2 years later, we are overjoyed that over 1,000 people have joined in this journey of cleaning the planet. We have so much fun picking up litter alongside all of you, and we can’t wait for more good things to come for the CleanUp Crew!
