LEARN MORE ABOUT OUR PROGRAMS

700,000 POUNDS REMOVED

SCH programs are aligned with two organizational pillars: Inspiration and Action. We accomplish their mission by organizing fun and engaging large-scale community beach cleanups & restoration events, sharing knowledge through a robust educational program, promoting awareness and action through public outreach campaigns, engaging business leadership in hands-on solutions through corporate cleanups, providing the tools needed for others to host their own cleanups, and offering sustainability consulting and waste diversion services at events.

After working with the SCH crew, we know that you will never look at plastic the same. Learn more about our programs and how you can get involved.

Kaimuki Cleanup Festival + Night Market

2,000 pounds removed

Aliʻiolani Elementary School
Talk story and (re)Learning

SCH’s office is located in Kaimuki and what better way to care for our neighborhood than to help keep it clean! The Kaimuki Festival and will also be more than a cleanup. It will be a day of fun, entertainment, activities, education, and more. You may be thinking, “Kaimuki isn’t a beach, why are we cleaning it?” That’s because what happens upstream impacts the ocean downstream. If we keep upstream areas like Kaimuki clean, it can help prevent debris from arriving on our coastlines in the first place.
