THE ACTIVITY COMMEMORATES INTERNATIONAL COASTAL CLEAN UP DAY ON SEP. 17.
The Public Service Toastmasters Club in collaboration with the Sandals Foundation invites you to a beach clean up activity to commemorate International Coastal Clean Up Day, on Sunday 17th September 2023 starting at 6:00am, at the Rendevous Beach, Vige and ending at the St. James Morgan Bay Beach.
Climate change continues to be of increasing importance to the environment. This is as we are experiencing one of the, if not the, hottest summer, in what is supposed to be the huricane season. Keeping coatlines and our beaches free from plastic and other waste, not only protects our marine eco-system but protects humans and mainland animals by mitigating water scarcity, droughts and flooding.
The shared mandate of the Public Service Toastmasters Club and the Sandals Foundation with this initiative is to develop leadership through collaboration which would result in preserving our environment for our future generations.
The purpose of this activity is to also improve the beautification of our local beaches and to raise awareness of the importance of protecting our acquatic animals. We hope to rally support from the community and organizations through participation.
All are invited to this free and wonderful activity as we also welcome you to join in on the family fun day activities.
