Why Volunteer?


The oceans and parks are our natural home. The earth is the one place that we all inhabit and it is our responsibility to keep it clean. The water and grass is full of trash that has already been there and it's not too late to fix it. Volunteering at Happy Ground is a great opportunity for students who need to get community service hours or who are just looking to make a difference. Come for the cleanup, leave as a community.
