A huge thank you to MAC for coming out to Biscayne National Park for a cleanup at Boca Chita key where they cleaned up over 71 pounds of trash!! ✨

This day was not only a way to empower youth from farmworker families in showing them the change they are capable of doing but also in helping the delicate ecosystem in Biscayne National Park. The heat and mosquitoes where not a deterrent for this group of role models.

A shoutout and thank you to Wild Tribute for making this cleanup possible!
