Plastic pollution is one of the biggest threats to East Coast beaches and marine ecosystems. Every year, tons of plastic debris end up along coastlines from Maine to Florida, affecting marine life, coastal communities, and tourism.

Ocean Blue Project organizes corporate beach cleanups on the East Coast, offering businesses an opportunity to take meaningful environmental action, fulfill CSR goals, and strengthen employee engagement.

By participating, your company will:

  • Remove plastic pollution from East Coast beaches
