One Adopt a Highway volunteer was inspired to serve his community during his daily drive to work.
You may have noticed them while traveling on the interstate, state highways in Arizona. Adopt a Highway recognition signs bearing the name of a volunteer group, a loved one memorialized or a local business sponsoring litter cleanup are all along our roadways.
The signs represent the adopters or caretakers of a two-mile segment of state highway. Volunteers who represent those signs are a priceless resource that helps keep Arizona’s highways clean.
Volunteers often make lemonade out of lemons.
Inspiration comes in many forms. In the case of Lina Rodriguez, it happened on a road trip.
