Help us Build a Bench — one cigarette butt at a time.

This April, A Greener Future is challenging communities across Canada to help us collect 1 million cigarette butts during the 2026 UNSMOKE Butt Blitz. Why? Because that’s how many recycled cigarette butts it takes to build a real park bench through TerraCycle.

By joining this cleanup, you’re not just removing toxic litter from the environment; you’re helping turn pollution into something lasting, useful, and public.

Every butt collected at this event counts toward our national goal.
