Beach Cleanup Volunteer Near Me

Join Ocean Blue Project for a beach cleanup volunteer near me event in your neighborhood or favorite beach.

Help us tackle plastic pollution in our one world ocean and start your own Do-it-yourself (D.I.Y.) cleanup! By yourself or with friends or family, every piece of plastic you recover helps reduce ocean pollution, save wildlife, and protect the health of future generations through a beach cleanup volunteer near me D-I-Y effort!

What’s in the sea mirrors debris that washes from our streets. Whether you live near a coast or the headwaters of the Colorado River, cleaning up your community will help reach our goal to remove one million pounds of plastic from our interconnected One World Ocean by 2025!

Millions of seabirds and marine organisms die after mistakenly ingesting plastic debris in and near the ocean. The good news is that recovering even a few pieces of plastic debris can help save the life of an eagle, a penguin, or a dolphin. Cleaning up more can help save an albatross, a turtle, a sea bass or a whale, and many other species.

Join the Ocean Blue Project in efforts to maintain safe food chains, water sources, and to enable marine life and seabirds to survive. Thousands of volunteers have helped in beach cleaning activities since 2012. Together, we can make our interconnected One World Ocean healthier for future generations and remove five million pounds of plastic by 2025! Join our ongoing beach cleaning activities and if you don’t see a event on line email and we can create one.

Plastic in the Ocean

We know there’s a lot of plastic in the Ocean. Ocean Blue volunteers have helped remove thousands of pounds of plastic from coastlines, bays and beaches coast to coast. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 79% of all beach debris is made of plastic. It flows in and out of the ocean, wreaking havoc on seabirds and marine organisms, and ultimately on humans.

How Does Plastic Harm the Environment?

The ocean is a mirror that reflects what is in our city streets. Rain, flash flooding or high winds washes litter and debris downhill, into street drains, urban streams, rivers, lakes, and eventually into the ocean. When it gets there depends on how far from the ocean you live. Plastic does not decompose; instead, it breaks down into tiny microplastics and harmful chemicals. These enter the water supply, and then the digestive tracts of humans and animals, threatening our water quality, our health, and wildlife.

Plastic in the Ocean Facts

Plastic pollution stretches from shorelines and the ocean surface to deep in the seabed. Of hundreds of millions of tons produced each year, only a tiny percentage is recycled. Most are poorly disposed of or leak from landfills and incineration facilities. According to a report by the United Nations (UN) Environment Programmed:

Millions of marine animals have died from plastic pollution in oceans.

Every year, between ten and twenty million tons of plastic waste escape into oceanic waters.

By the year 2050, the ocean is projected to have more plastic by weight than fish.

Community boards and social media platforms play a vital role in spreading the word about beach cleanups. Local resources such as bulletin boards in community centers, libraries, and schools often display upcoming events. Additionally, Facebook groups and Instagram pages are popular venues for alerting local communities about beach cleanups.
Engaging with these platforms not only keeps you informed but also fosters a sense of community.
Participating in monthly beach cleanups is a fantastic way to make a consistent impact. Organizations like the Ocean Blue Project Los Angeles Chapter organize monthly cleanups across LA County, and all over the USA. Our main goal is by engaging volunteers and raising awareness about plastic pollution. These regular events provide an avenue for community members to contribute to environmental efforts and maintain cleaner beaches.
Let’s explore how you can get involved, what to bring, and how to participate as a group.
How to Register
Registering for monthly beach cleanups is crucial to ensure your participation and contribute effectively to environmental efforts. Participants must register at least 15 days in advance to secure their spot, as capacity is often restricted.
Cleanups typically take place on the first Saturday of each month, organized by the Surfrider Foundation Los Angeles Chapter.
What to Bring
When attending a beach cleanup, it’s important to bring essential items to ensure a comfortable and productive experience. Reusable water bottles, sunscreen, and gloves are must-haves. While gloves and bags are usually provided, bringing personal items like hats and comfortable shoes can enhance your experience.

This cleanup is a great opportunity to help maintain the Oregon coast and engage with the local community.
Coastal Cleanup Day
Coastal Cleanup Day, organized by the California Coastal Commission and local leaders, is held every September and involves over 40 trash cleanups along the coast. This event is a testament to the power of collective action, bringing together communities to remove significant amounts of trash from coastal areas.
Adopt a Beach Program
The Adopt a Beach Program encourages individuals and groups to take long-term responsibility for maintaining specific beach areas. This program, offered by organizations like Ocean Blue Project, allows participants to commit to regular cleanups and play a crucial role in beach conservation efforts.
Let’s explore how you can adopt a beach, the benefits of doing so, and some inspiring success stories.
How to Adopt a Beach
Adopting a beach involves applying for a Beach Cleanup Partnership with Ocean Blue Project and committing to regular cleanups. Participants typically need to fill out an online application and agree to perform at least three cleanups per year at their selected location.
Benefits of Adoption
The benefits of participating in the Adopt a Beach Program are numerous. Volunteers report feeling a stronger sense of community and pride as they work together to care for their local beaches. Additionally, by adopting a beach, participants play a crucial role in protecting wildlife habitats and keeping beaches healthier for local marine life.
Success stories abound, showing significant improvements in beach health and community engagement.
Success Stories
Many individuals and families have successfully maintained their adopted beaches, significantly reducing litter and enhancing local wildlife habitats. These success stories illustrate the tangible impact that dedicated volunteers can have on beach conditions and inspire others to join the effort.
Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteering for beach cleanups offers a variety of opportunities for individuals, families, and groups. Whether you’re looking to participate in a one-time event or make a long-term commitment, there are numerous ways to get involved.
Let’s explore how individuals, families, and corporate groups can contribute to keeping our beaches clean.
Individual Volunteering
Individuals can actively participate in beach cleanups organized by local environmental groups, helping to mitigate ocean pollution. Heal the Bay’s monthly ‘Nothin’ But Sand’ cleanups are a great way to make a direct impact.
Volunteers should consider bringing personal items like a reusable water bottle and sunscreen for their comfort.
Family and Kids
Family-friendly beach cleanup events often encourage participation from all ages, making it a fun and educational activity for children. These events include activities designed to engage younger participants and instill environmental responsibility from a young age.
Corporate Groups and Schools
Group participation in beach cleanups allows corporate teams and school classes to work together outside the office or classroom, building teamwork and camaraderie. The Adopt a Beach Program offers a long-term commitment that reinforces environmental stewardship while providing educational opportunities for students and employees.
Through these organized efforts, participants can learn about marine conservation and the importance of keeping coastal environments clean.
Essential Supplies for Beach Cleanups
Preparation is key to a successful beach cleanup. Essential supplies include gloves, trash bags, and tools for picking up litter. Wearing comfortable clothing and shoes suitable for outdoor activities, as well as bringing items like reusable water bottles and sunscreen, ensures a comfortable and productive experience.
Let’s break down the essential supplies into cleanup kits, personal items, and safety tips.
Cleanup Kits
Ocean Blue Project donates Cleanup kits to school groups and sells the kit to company groups. Typically include essential items like reusable gloves, trash bags, and tools for picking up litter. These kits are compact and easily transportable, making them convenient for spontaneous cleanups. Having a well-prepared cleanup kit ensures that volunteers are equipped to handle any debris they encounter. Ocean Blue likes to use burlap bags over plastic since to main goal is to reduce plastic.
Personal Items
Bringing personal items to beach cleanups ensures participants are well-prepared and comfortable. Recommended items include reusable water bottles, sunscreen, hats, and reusable gloves. These items not only promote sustainability but also enhance the overall cleanup experience.
Safety Tips
Safety is paramount during beach cleanups. Wearing gloves protects your hands from sharp objects and debris. Additionally, appropriate footwear shields your feet from potential hazards on the beach.
Always be mindful of your surroundings and handle trash with care to ensure a safe and enjoyable cleanup experience.
Tracking Impact
Tracking the impact of beach cleanups is crucial for measuring success and encouraging further participation. Tools like the Marine Debris Tracker app help volunteers log the types and quantities of debris collected, providing valuable data for environmental policies.
By reporting and sharing the results of cleanups, we can highlight the significance of these efforts and inspire more people to join in.
Reporting Trash Removed
Reporting the volume of trash collected during beach cleanups is vital for understanding the impact of these efforts. This data helps assess the effectiveness of cleanup initiatives and plan future efforts more efficiently. Both the volume and quantity of trash removed are crucial metrics for gauging progress and making necessary improvements.
Sharing Success
Encouraging volunteers to share their cleanup achievements on social media can significantly increase awareness and motivate further participation. By posting about their experiences and the trash collected, volunteers can inspire others to join in and highlight the importance of keeping our beaches clean.
Sharing these successes helps build a stronger community of environmentally conscious individuals.

TRIO Upward Bound, Nye Beach, Newport, OR

Beach cleanups are an essential part of maintaining the health and beauty of our oceans and communities. By participating in a beach cleanup, individuals can make a significant impact on reducing marine debris and promoting a cleaner environment. Beach cleanups are a great way to get involved in community service, meet like-minded individuals, and enjoy the outdoors while making a difference.
There are various types of beach cleanups, including community beach cleanups, private beach cleanups, and corporate cleanups. Community beach cleanups are open to the public and are usually held on a regular basis, such as the first Saturday of every month. Private beach cleanups can be scheduled by contacting the Ocean Institute and require a minimum of eight participants. Corporate cleanups are a great way for companies to give back to the community and promote team-building.

Thousands of volunteers have helped in beach cleaning activities since 2012. Together, we can make our interconnected One World Ocean healthier for future generations and remove five million pounds of plastic by 2025! Join our ongoing beach cleaning activities and if you don’t see a event on line email and we can create one.

When participating in a beach cleanup, you can expect:

A fun and rewarding experience making a difference in your community
A brief orientation and instructions on how to participate
A variety of tasks, such as picking up trash, sorting recyclables, and weighing in collected trash
Opportunities to meet new people and make friends
A sense of accomplishment and pride in contributing to a cleaner environment
Plastic in the Ocean

We know there’s a lot of plastic in the Ocean. Ocean Blue volunteers have helped remove thousands of pounds of plastic, including single-use plastic, from coastlines, bays and beaches coast to coast. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 79% of all beach debris is made of plastic. It flows in and out of the ocean, wreaking havoc on seabirds and marine organisms, and ultimately on humans.

The ocean is a mirror that reflects what is in our city streets. Rain, flash flooding or high winds washes litter and debris downhill, into street drains, urban streams, rivers, lakes, and eventually into the ocean. When it gets there depends on how far from the ocean you live. Plastic does not decompose; instead, it breaks down into tiny microplastics and harmful chemicals. These enter the water supply, and then the digestive tracts of humans and animals, threatening our water quality, our health, and wildlife.

Plastic in the Ocean Facts

Plastic pollution stretches from shorelines and the ocean surface to deep in the seabed. Of hundreds of millions of tons produced each year, only a tiny percentage is recycled. Most are poorly disposed of or leak from landfills and incineration facilities. According to a report by the United Nations (UN) Environment Programme:
Millions of marine animals have died from plastic pollution in oceans.
Every year, between ten and twenty million tons of plastic waste escape into oceanic waters.
By the year 2050, the ocean is projected to have more plastic by weight than fish.

How to Save the Ocean from Pollution

Cleanups raise awareness and promote healthy environments, watersheds, and clean water projects that save the ocean from pollution. With a group, organization, friends or family, or even on your own, you can volunteer to help anytime, anywhere. Additionally, there are numerous volunteer opportunities for beach cleanups, regularly updated on platforms like Facebook, especially for events organized by Keep Palm Beach County Beautiful.
There are several ways to help. It’s simple. Together, though beach cleaning activities we can make a vast difference, one person, one step at a time. We’ll provide all the tools and instructions you need to save the ocean from pollution! Be sure to register your cleanup event eight weeks in advance for the best possible cleanup experience.

Collecting Plastic Debris Saves Lives

Our mission is to prevent the devastating effects of ocean pollution and educate communities along the way. Whether you’re a party of one or one hundred, every pound of plastic removed from a beach, shoreline, waterway or urban area helps stop plastic from polluting oceans, breaking down into microplastics and harmful chemicals, and hurting or killing marine wildlife.
Cigarette butts are a common type of trash collected during beach cleanups.

One Piece of Plastic and One Life at a Time

Every piece of plastic you recover from our environment allows greater chances of survival for marine life and seabirds. We can rescue them from harm simply by cleaning up the environment, one piece of plastic at a time. Even removing a few pieces can save lives of seabirds, penguins, eagles, fish, dolphins, seals, whales, pinnipeds, manatees, sea turtles, and many other creatures. No quantity or piece of plastic collected is too small!
