Clean Beach Coalition Volunteer Opportunity

Volunteer Opportunity

Clean Beach Coalition – Help us prepare temporary waste bins to keep our ocean clean

The Clean Beach Coalition is a program led by I Love A Clean San Diego, in partnership with the City of San Diego and Urban Corps.

During busy summer holidays, San Diego’s beaches and bays are the popular spots for local and out-of-town visitors. With the influx of beachgoers, permanent trash receptacles are overwhelmed by the surge of additional waste, which can lead to pollution on the beaches and in the bays and ocean.

Now in its 15th summer, I Love A Clean San Diego’s Clean Beach Coalition plans to place and maintain nearly 200 temporary waste and recycling bins, beginning with the Memorial Day holiday, along the beaches and bays in Pacific Beach, Mission Beach and Mission Bay.

Come help us prepare these temporary trash and recycling bins to support our beaches during the summer holidays!

We will be labeling and assembling the temporary trash and recycling bins at our office in Kearny Mesa.

This event is limited to 10 volunteers so please sign up now!

Minimum age: 13
