On the fourth Saturday of every month, volunteers can assist the Crandon Park staff and beautify this coastal park to keep our ocean ecosystem healthy.
This opportunity is made possible with the support of The Miami Seaquarium’s Green Team. The Miami Seaquarium pursues conservation of the natural world through education, rehabilitation, and sustainability. They promote environmentally friendly initiatives that will create a better tomorrow for our animals, guests, and community. As ambassadors for the natural world, The Miami Seaquarium strives to champion sustainable greener practices for our animals, community, and the global environment. They offer discounted admission to any volunteers participating in this coastal cleanup.
Responsibilities and Duties:
– Removing microplastics and trash along Crandon Park South
– Additional tasks as needed
Qualifications: Youth under 15 must have a parent/guardian present.
Commitment Expected: Seaquarium staff will provide gloves, trash bags, and other tools needed for your volunteer activity.
