The Pacific Beach Coalition offers several different ways for businesses and schools to partner with us. We look forward to hosting your group for a private event or school assembly soon.

Contact our program lead, Greg Finkelstein, to book your event.

Corporate Give Back: Beach Cleanups

Our trained naturalists are ready to take your team out for a meaningful and memorable team-building experience along the coast. We make corporate volunteering opportunities fun and educational for groups of all sizes.

Beach cleanups are typically 2-hour events at one of our sites in Pacifica, CA. A naturalist leads the event, provides all the necessary supplies, and gives a brief orientation before sending your group out to beautify the beach and surrounding area. Our team sorts and weighs all of the material your group collects and shares the statistics so you can humblebrag about the impact you made.

Our naturalist also shares fun information about our annual Earth Honoree, the importance of your hard work, and how you can be stewards of the coast in your daily life.

Corporate Give Back: Coastal Habitat Restorations 

Habitat restoration experiences are similar to our beach cleanups. Instead of searching for and collecting trash, groups spend 2-3 hours at a site in Pacifica, CA removing invasive plants, mulching, and watering native plants under the supervision of a trained naturalist. This activity is a great way to showcase your team’s ability to work together toward a common goal.

We provide all of the supplies, teach your team about the precious native ecosystems and how these initiatives help them thrive, and share fun information about our annual Earth Honoree. It’s a chance for your group to connect with nature, get their hands (a little) dirty, and contribute toward making our coast more resilient to climate change.

School Field Trips

Take your classroom to the beach. We offer educational outings for students of all grade levels and abilities. School field trips take place at one of our sites in Pacifica, CA and usually consist of a naturalist-led beach cleanup. We also offer a habitat restoration opportunity for older students.

Plus, your students will learn about our annual Earth Honoree, the importance of taking care of the planet, and how to make a difference in their community at any age.

School Assemblies

Let us bring the wonders of the ocean to your classroom with fun and engaging school assemblies for students in TK through high school.

Our naturalists visit Bay Area schools to educate thousands of students about the marine animal of the year (affectionately known as our annual Earth Honoree). Each captivating 20- to 30-minute presentation brings to life the animal’s biology, behavior, common threats, and ways students can take action to help.

We can accommodate classrooms of all sizes, host back-to-back presentations, and tailor the content to grade levels so everyone is engaged.
