Host a Cleanup in Your Area With the Help of BoatUS Foundation
New Guide to Waterway Cleanups for Boating Business and Boaters
Clean waterways are essential to safe and fun boating. Whether you are a boater, a marina owner, a towboat captain or other waterfront business owner, helping to keep our waterways clean is in everyone’s best interest. Each year hundreds of thousands of individuals help by participating in beach and waterway cleanups around the world, collecting millions of pounds of trash and debris. Boaters and marine-based businesses are especially well equipped to help in this effort. With waterfront access and boats, we can easily get to locations that can be otherwise difficult to reach. Thanks to the BoatUS Foundation for Boating Safety and Clean Water, conducting your own cleanup event is now a lot easier.
Cleanup events are a great way to show your commitment to your community and the environment.
If you are interested in conducting a cleanup event in your area, visit BoatUS.com/Foundation/Cleanup to download the guide and start planning your event.
Not ready to dive into planning your own cleanup event? Why not participate with an established event in your area? Your special skills, access to boats and understanding of local waterways could be invaluable to other groups in expanding their efforts during a cleanup event. Contact the ICC to participate in an established event by visiting signuptocleanup.org
