The 🇲🇭RMI EPA Ebeye community cleanup program continues!

The second Community Cleanup Program was conducted on August 31, 2026, with the Ebeye Salvation Army Youth Group in partnership with KALGov ESWM team. ♻️

Cleanup Route: Started from the Gym and headed to the hospital from oceanside. Went around the hospital area and headed back to the Gym area.🏡

More than 20 community members participated and collected approximately 127.5 lb. of trash, equivalent to up to 210 gallons (7 thirty-gallon trash bags), along with 99 PET bottles and 72 aluminum cans for recycling. ♻️

A post-cleanup activity was also introduced to gather feedback and discuss the expected proceeds from recyclables. Based on the experience, future cleanups will focus on strengthening pre-cleanup environmental awareness, improving recycling collection, and facilitating post-cleanup feedback more effectively.

The cleanup effective with the collaboration among EPA Ebeye, KALGov ESWM team, and local community groups.

Once again thank 🤝you Ebeye Salvation Army Youth Group for your contribution. 🥇

RMI EPA's Jimor Wōdwōj Initiative community cleanup continues! 🌊

This past Saturday, our cleanup covered the stretch from Jenrok track & field to the MIHS south gates, alongside the Rainbow 🌈 Boys. The weather was blazing 🥵, but everyone worked hard — and by the end of the activity, we had collected an impressive 58 bags of trash 🚮. Amazing teamwork!

⚠️ A reminder: the MIHS lagoon area is not a dumpsite. If you're stopping there for lunch, please don't leave your garbage 🗑️ behind — take your trash with you when you leave. Left unchecked, it starts to look like a dump, and that's not the community we want to be.

Let's all do our part to keep it clean and enjoyable for everyone.

🙏 Once again, a huge thank you to everyone who came out this past weekend. Your hard work makes a real difference in keeping our community clean and beautiful! ✨🏝
Kareo, Kareo, Kareo!
