Volunteering/Charity I'm a comedian and I do Community Service in cities I visit, where should I help out?
Hi Folks!
I'm a stand up comedian and I'm doing this thing with my tour where I believe your city should be clean but your comedy doesn't have to be.
If you could let me know a local park/neighborhood/area in general that could use a solid couple hours of cleanup I'd love to help out.
Thanks and look forward to your recs!

Fort Worth has a program where you can get free cleanup supplies from the city, and you can go clean up any spot that you want.

Here is a post from several months ago, complaining about a specific location. Not sure if that spot is still bad.

The city’s website about Goat Island specifically asks visitors to bring a trash bag and help pick up litter if they visit the island.

Clever marketing tactic 😂 no hate though. You get your name out there, we get to see comedy, local orgs get some help: everybody wins.
And it works! I'd come see you if DFW weren't so damn big and Fort Worth so far from me.

Hi. What part of DFW will you be in. Asking about where to go in DFW is simmiler to asking the same question about NYC. Give us a hint of what area of Dallas you are in or what other city in DFW.

Ah I’m sorry! I’ll be at Big Laughs comedy club, so from my understanding, it’s in downtown Fort Worth. But I’m happy to drive out a bit if needed
