There’s undeniable momentum fueling our monthly cleanups and habitat restorations, and it’s being fueled by passionate Earth Heroes like you. In just two short months during the start of 2026, we’ve witnessed waves of passionate community members turning out to protect and restore our coastal and bayside communities. This isn’t just about cleaning up beaches and pulling out weeds; it’s […]

Each new year offers an opportunity to align our intentions with action. Our January 2026 site reports prove that volunteerism is strong on the coast. While many are still settling into their resolutions, our community is already rolling up its sleeves and getting to work, including at our 29th annual Beach Cleanup & Planting at Linda Mar to honor Martin […]

Our final month of the year brings about excitement to unveil our annual impact (coming soon), gratitude for achieving another year of community action and education, and a little bit of sadness that the year has come to a close.

In addition to our 13 cleanup and habitat restoration events, we also participated in the annual dog surfing championship by offering cleanup support. Throughout the month, many of our dedicated volunteers were treated to majestic humpback whale sightings and eye-opening pelican dives while […]

Summer is here — even though it doesn’t necessarily look or feel like it on the coast. With the summer months comes more visitors to our beaches and even more trash that needs to be intercepted before it ends up in the ocean. In addition to our regularly scheduled events, we also supported the City of Pacifica during their post-July […]
