24. Terrill Haigler aka YaFavTrashman: How a Sanitation Worker Changed Philadelphia

Terrill Haigler became an essential worker less than three months after accepting the position as a laborer for the Philadelphia Sanitation Department. To bridge the gap between residents and sanitation workers he created the Instagram page @_yafavtrashman to give residents an insider look of what sanitation workers experienced during the pandemic. When Terrill noticed that his co-workers didn’t have the proper PPE to execute their jobs safely, he decided to stand in the gap and start a Custom Ink t-shirt fundraiser to purchase PPE, hand sanitizer and cleaning supplies, catapulting him to Philly’s latest viral sensation!
