International Coastal Cleanup Day
Event Description:
Join the global movement for International Coastal Cleanup Day! Whether it’s your favorite stretch of beach, sound or neighborhood park, taking just 15 minutes to pick up litter makes a massive difference. Every piece of trash collected is one less threat to local wildlife and our shared coastal waters. Grab a bucket or bag, head to the spot you love most, and join millions of volunteers worldwide in keeping our shorelines clean, safe, and beautiful!
Rally your crew, pick an area and let’s turn individual sweeps into a massive global impact.
To help you get the word out and recruit friends, neighbors, or community members for your cleanups, we’ve launched a new Cleanup Promotion Request Form.
