Clean JXN Gateway Beautification Day

October 18, 2025

On October 18, 2025, Mississippi Urban League Young Professionals President Lee Scott II, and 

Vice President Wilburn Smith joined fellow volunteers for "Clean JXN Gateway Beautification Day", an inaugural program launched by the City of Jackson focusing on removing litter and debris from major entryways, including West Capitol Street, Woodrow Wilson Avenue, Fortification Street, High Street, Pearl Street, and Pascagoula Street. Thank you, Lee and Wilbur, for your commitment to making the city's gateways more welcoming. Their hands-on work demonstrates community leadership and shows that we build a stronger, cleaner, and more connected Jackson when we all take pride in our neighborhoods.
