Programs

Our beach cleanups are a hands-on way for volunteers to make a real difference. By removing litter and marine debris from our shoreline, we help protect local wildlife, preserve the beauty of our beaches, and raise awareness about the impact of pollution. These community events are open to all ages and are a great opportunity to connect with others who care about conservation. Whether you are a local resident or just visiting, joining a cleanup is a simple yet powerful way to give back to the Outer Banks.

Through our educational programs, we aim to install a sense of responsibility and stewardship in individuals of all ages, empowering them to take action in their own communities.

Advocacy is at the heart of everything we do. We speak up for vulnerable coastal ecosystems and the wildlife that call them home—working to ensure their protection through smart policies, community engagement, and collaboration with environmental partners. We believe that by raising awareness and amplifying local voices, we can influence decisions that safeguard the natural beauty of our shores for generations to come.
