Shoreline Cleanup Kit
Shoreline Cleanup Kits are a FREE, hands-on learning resource that provide educators and young environmental leaders with the opportunity to host Shoreline Cleanups with their classrooms and communities. ♻️
Each Shoreline Cleanup kit comes with enough pickers, gloves, and safety equipment to lead a cleanup for up to 30 participants. Additionally, each Kit will include a Cleanup Leader Guide with discussion questions and step-by-step guidance to lead an impactful, thought-provoking event. 🧠
By participating in a Shoreline Cleanup using an Ocean Wise Shoreline Cleanup Kit, you will give your group the unique opportunity to become citizen scientists, directly supporting our plastics research initiatives!🔬
