Join Us in Preserving Florida’s Waterways
Get involved in our local water cleanup events and initiatives.
Our Mission
The damage caused by trash in Florida’s ecosystem is devastating. It entangles birds, turtles, and manatees, leaches harmful chemicals into our water supply, and destroys the delicate beauty that draws millions to our state. Our core mission is to stop this pollution at its source. We believe in tackling the problem in our local creeks, springs, and rivers before the debris can travel downstream, accumulate in major river systems, and ultimately pollute the ocean.

About Us
Our story begins on the water. As a group of professional kayak tour guides, we have spent years navigating the winding rivers, crystal-clear springs, and beautiful backwaters of Central Florida. On every tour, we found ourselves collecting the cans, plastic bags, and fishing lines that littered these natural treasures. It was second nature to us—a simple act of respect for the environment we call our office.
After encouragement from friends involved in other successful non-profits and community cleanups, we decided to turn our informal efforts into a formal mission. We founded this organization to mobilize others who share our passion for protecting Florida’s vital waterways.
How We Help
We bridge the gap between wanting to help and taking action. For volunteers across the Central Florida area, we organize, equip, and lead cleanup events. We provide all the necessary tools—from kayaks and trash grabbers to bags and safety gear—and offer the guidance needed to conduct safe and effective cleanups. By empowering our community, we can work together to restore and protect the natural heart of Florida for generations to come.
Join Us
We are incredibly grateful for our community. Whether you choose to volunteer your time at a cleanup or support our mission with a donation, your contribution is vital to protecting Florida’s waterways.
