THEY ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO TAKE ACTION Surfrider Foundation supports volunteers to organize Beach cleanups completely autonomously, with a range of tools and an educational approach. THEY GENERATE PUBLIC AWARENESS Joining one of Surfrider’s beach cleanups, participants become aware of the impact of waste-related pollution, while actively reducing marine litter. THEY AIM AT THE HEART OF THE PROBLEM When volunteers inform Surfrider about the waste picked up during their cleanup, they are contributing to pollution research and helping to influence legislation.
