Please note: We are hosting the October cleanup on 10/23!

Join us and Nation of Hawaiʻi for an ʻāina workday! The day will consist of removing invasive plants, planting native plants, cleaning up rubbish, and talking story.
Join us for a community cleanup taking place in November within the Waikīkī Ahupuaʻa. From the upland neighborhoods to the waterways that flow makai, we’ll come together to care for the places that connect our communities. Volunteers of all ages are welcome! SCHtaff will guide groups as we work side by side to remove debris and care for the land and water that sustain us.
Each month, on the 2nd Thursday, Sustainable Coastlines Hawai‘i will host a beach cleanup in Kahuku at the James Campbell Wildlife Refuge from 9-12, with options for a lunch and scientific data collection from 12:30-3:00 PM.
As part of our Island Earth series, we’ll celebrate the work of the previous Saturday's cleanup with a film screening of ‘A‘ā, directed by Chris Miyashiro. The film follows a crew of three voyagers who set out across the Pacific to bring their 26-foot canoe home to Hawai‘i. Along the way, the captain reflects on his teachers, his experiences, and the deep cultural ties that guide him. The evening will include a Q&A with Chris, inspiring us to reimagine what’s possible when we honor the planet and our coastlines.

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.

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.
