The Leaf Angel Program matches dedicated volunteers with Cranberry Township residents who are unable to rake and collect leaves during the leaf collection season. The Leaf Angel Program is a direct result of the Township’s Snow Angel Program that assists residents in need of snow removal.

Family, friends, and neighbors are encouraged to help a neighbor in this simple, but truly important way. 

The application for Leaf Angel volunteers opens September 30and the application for requests opens October 14. The program runs from November 1 until the end of yard waste collection.  

The Leaf Angel program matches residents with volunteers when/if there are enough volunteers to fill the requests. There is no guarantee that enough volunteers will be secured. If/when there are no remaining volunteers to match, a message will be placed on this page indicating that residents may still submit their information, but that they are encouraged to find alternate assistance, as Leaf Angel assistance is not guaranteed.

How

The Township requires that all leaves collected be deposited in yard waste carts or disposed of in biodegradable bags and left at the curb for collection, per Vogel Waste Disposal requirements.  No loose leaves or unapproved plastic bags will be accepted.  Five biodegradable leaf bags (per yard) will be donated to each volunteer.  All bags should be sealed and weigh less than 50 pounds per Vogel Waste Disposal requirements. 

Volunteers can pick up bags at the Visitors Entrance at the Public Works Department - 20729 Route 19, Cranberry Township, PA 16066. Hours: Monday - Friday, 7:00 a.m. - 3:30 p.m.

Can't pick up bags during this time? Contact Kaylee Eyth, Special Projects Coordinator at kaylee.eyth@cranberrytownship.org to make other arrangements.
