Adopt-A-Beach or Canyon

Volunteers are able to schedule and lead their own cleanups at over 70 locations through the Adopt-A-Beach or Canyon.


This program is funded by the California Coastal Commission’s Whale Tail Grant, and allows service groups, businesses, schools, and individuals to select a beach or inland area to adopt and perform three cleanups over the course of one year. School adopters are only required to complete one cleanup per year due to transportation limitations.

Volunteer Site Captains​

Our reach and impact would not be possible without our dedicated Site Captains at our countywide cleanups: Creek to Bay and Coastal Cleanup Day.

If you have noticed the need for a cleanup in your neighborhood or favorite recreational area, become a Site Captain and take action! I Love A Clean San Diego will provide you with the training to be successful in activating your community and hosting an impactful cleanup. Contact Kristin Banks at kbanks@cleansd.org or call 619-704-2772 to get involved.
