Long Beach Cleanup with Veterans!

Everyone is welcome to join this free community beach cleanup at Long Beach Veterans Memorial Pier. Veterans, families, and community members are invited to come together to protect our coastline and care for our shared environment.

Volunteers will be alongside Veterans to help remove plastic debris and litter from the sand before it can return to the ocean and landfills. Whether you are a Veteran, a local resident, or simply want to give back, your help will #MakeAnImpact

Location to Meet: Belmont Veterans Memorial Pier, Long Beach, CA
Look out for our RFV Branded EZUp on the North Side of the pier in the sand (below Belmont Brewing Co.)

VETERAN SOCIAL

We’re passionate about supporting local businesses!

After each event, we make it a priority to gather with fellow Veterans and volunteers at a nearby local eatery for some food, drinks, and great company.

Make sure to include it in your ticket checkout process as an 'add-on'.

Are you a business that would like to host our veterans? !

We value the dedication of our military and civilian volunteers, which is why we offer volunteer hours and/or Letters of Appreciation (for our Active Duty/Reserves) for every event.

To request your LOA or volunteer hours, simply indicate your preference when getting your ticket and ensure you check into the event.

Our mission is to remove trash from our planet by empowering Veterans to clean our communities. We accomplish our mission by having Veteran operated teams organize cleanups throughout the U.S. In return, we are giving Veterans a chance to recycle their leadership skills and continue our service in a different and equally important way.
