International Coastal Cleanup Day Results

We are proud to share that our five Founding Impact Pod kids collected over 11 pounds of trash, both macro and micro plastics from the mangroves and wooded areas of Vizcaya Gardens on September 20th for the International Coastal Cleanup Day 2025. This is our first service project of the fall and is part of our fall theme of the environment. The theme continues on December 7th with the Miami Waterkeeper and the ResilientSea Floating Classroom experience and the kids' presentations on environmental organizations they have researched.

We are sending a huge shoutout to all the amazing Site Captains who led their teams with dedication, and all the Volunteers who participated.
