Help us reach our goal of engaging 600 volunteers to divert 1,500 lbs of plastic from ending up in Lake Huron this year.

​
Support the Cause!
As a small charity, we rely on donations to help fund our conservation programs. Our beach clean-up events are Lake Huron Coastal Centre's biggest fundraiser. It provides people the opportunity to give back to their community and to the lake we all love, but we can't do it alone. Donate now to help us continue our important work to protect Lake Huron.
​
More Than a Beach Clean-up
Garbage collected from a Clean-up the Coast event will contribute to the worlds largest international coastal cleanup initiative through the Ocean Wise Shoreline Clean-up data base. They work with individuals and groups to minimize plastic and garbage pollution on shorelines and in communities. The goal of this initiative is to remove and analyze trash to better understand common garbage types and where they are sourced from. Having that data available and public will help hold corporations and consumers accountable. They also make it easy to lead your own shoreline clean-up!​
