The International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) is the world’s largest volunteer effort for our oceans.

 

"People all over the world remove trash from the shores and document what they find, and Save The Bay is proud to be the Rhode Island State Coordinator for the effort, organizing dozens of cleanups throughout the state. In 2023, volunteers in the Ocean State collected 22,480 pounds of trash from Rhode Island shorelines," said Save the Bay.
