Brandywine Bay Clean with YEPBVI a Victory!

Conspire to Clean Brandywine Bay Beach

Cleanliness is a key value at Unified Events. The state/quality of being clean or kept clean is universal understanding. Which then extends into our surroundings, including community and areas we congregate. Back in 2018, our team worked to conduct 11 community clean ups known as Beyond the Beach Clean ups throughout the Virgin Islands to gather plastic for recycling. The events grew and we connected with over 200 hundred volunteers through these clean ups. Praises to all the volunteers and partners at YEP BVI, M.A.L.E. and Green+CleanVI for this event held on December 1st. View the pictures below and check the coordination!

Along with our friends at the Youth Empowerment Programme, better known as YEP, Green+CleanVI and M.A.L.E were our collaboration partners for this Saturday joint clean on Brandywine Bay Beach. In the above picture, YEP volunteers receive gloves and collection bags in preparation.
Brandywine Bay Beach Before
Brandywine Bay beachfront bathroom area, covered with used plastic and Styrofoam takeout from an overturned litter bin. The beach, once a rumored destination for Disney Cruise tours, is often disregarded as a “park and eat” beach throughout the week.
