Now Live: The Glitter Member Hub ✨
At Glitter, we’ve spent the last few years building a model that’s truly community-powered—neighbors funding neighbors, cleaning one block at a time, and creating living-wage jobs in the process.
Until now, all of that was happening behind the scenes.
Today, we’re making it visible.
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of the Glitter Members Hub—a brand new web portal that makes it easier than ever to stay connected to your block, your cleaner, and your neighbors.
No download needed. Just real-time, block-level transparency at your fingertips.
Clean Streets Are Safe Streets: What We Learned from 9 Months in Northwest Philly
In just 9 months, a block-cleaning pilot in Northwest Philly led to a 63% drop in gun violence — and created living-wage jobs for neighbors most affected. Here’s what we did, and what’s next.
10+ Affordable Solutions and Services for Philadelphia Residents
Our goal is to make our city a cleaner, healthier, and more inclusive place for everyone. But there are other things that residents need access to besides safe and clean streets. Essentials like affordable housing, food, electricity, internet, heating, water. We’ve done some digging to find programs that help make these essentials more affordable.
The True Value of Work: How Glitter’s Wages Stack Up
Cleaning is hard work. It’s physically demanding and requires attention to detail, dedication, and reliability. Despite this, the industry standard for cleaning services often involves low wages and little job security. By offering $25 per block we see an average hourly earning of $30 an hour. With this level of compensation we aim to elevate the profession, acknowledging the essential role our cleaners play in maintaining healthy, vibrant neighborhoods.
