What if we told you it is possible to save marine animals, keep toxic chemicals out of the water, and create a safer environment all while making friends, meeting new people, getting exercise, and spending time outdoors? Who wouldn’t want to join in on a local beach clean up! From coast to coast, evidence of humanity is washed up on shore. From cigarette butts to remnants of plastic, the effects of trash go way beyond damaging the overall appearance of the beaches. This debris and trash can be extremely harmful to animals and our oceans, and unfortunately it’s not everyday that people are able to take the time to do something kind for our Earth.

However, this weekend we were honored to find members of the Sigma Nu Fraternity at the College of Charleston cleaning up something near and dear to our hearts, Folly Beach. We are so thankful for them and their desire to be the change we wish to see in the world!

We only have one Earth and it is crucial we take care of it. So, we’d like to challenge our readers to follow Sigma Nu’s footsteps and get out there and be the change they wish to see, too!
